    Subject: Instantiating PrivateKey ..

Hi,
I am new to Java Security and would appreciate any help I can get.
I have a DER encoded private key stored in a file. I need to instantiate
a PrivateKey object from this data. The API doesn't(?) show a way to do
this. I can do this now using an undocumented class (sun.security...)
but the product I am working on, has to pass the pure java test, which
means I cannot use any undocumented classes. Is there a workaround for
this ?
