	/**
	* An exception indicating one of a variety of problems encountered when
	* validating a certification path.
	* <p>
	* A {@code CertPathValidatorException} provides support for wrapping
	* exceptions. The {@link #getCause getCause} method returns the throwable,
	* if any, that caused this exception to be thrown.
	* <p>
	* A {@code CertPathValidatorException} may also include the
	* certification path that was being validated when the exception was thrown,
	* the index of the certificate in the certification path that caused the
	* exception to be thrown, and the reason that caused the failure. Use the
	* {@link #getCertPath getCertPath}, {@link #getIndex getIndex}, and
	* {@link #getReason getReason} methods to retrieve this information.
	*
	* <p>
	* <b>Concurrent Access</b>
	* <p>
	* Unless otherwise specified, the methods defined in this class are not
	* thread-safe. Multiple threads that need to access a single
	* object concurrently should synchronize amongst themselves and
	* provide the necessary locking. Multiple threads each manipulating
	* separate objects need not synchronize.
