/**
 * 
 * Common interface for config classes applicable to 
 * {@link org.jasypt.encryption.pbe.StandardPBEStringEncryptor} objects. 
 * This interface extends {@link PBEConfig} to add config parameters specific 
 * to String encryption. 
 * 
 * 
 * This interface lets the user create new PBEConfig
 * classes which retrieve values for this parameters from different
 * (and maybe more secure) sources (remote servers, LDAP, other databases...),
 * and do this transparently for the encryptor object. 
 * 
 * 
 * The config objects passed to an encryptor will only be queried once
 * for each configuration parameter, and this will happen 
 * during the initialization of the encryptor object. 
 * 
 * 
 * For a default implementation, see {@link SimpleStringPBEConfig}.
