     * <li>{@code KRB5_GET_TKT_FLAGS}:
     * the returned object is a boolean array for the service ticket flags,
     * which is long enough to contain all true bits. This means if
     * the user wants to get the <em>n</em>'th bit but the length of the
     * returned array is less than <em>n</em>, it is regarded as false.
     * <li>{@code KRB5_GET_SESSION_KEY}:
     * the returned object is an instance of {@link java.security.Key},
     * which has the following properties:
     *    <ul>
     *    <li>Algorithm: enctype as a string, where
     *        enctype is defined in RFC 3961, section 8.
     *    <li>Format: "RAW"
     *    <li>Encoded form: the raw key bytes, not in any ASN.1 encoding
     *    </ul>
     * <li>{@code KRB5_GET_AUTHZ_DATA}:
     * the returned object is an array of
     * {@link com.sun.security.jgss.AuthorizationDataEntry}, or null if the
     * optional field is missing in the service ticket.
     * <li>{@code KRB5_GET_AUTHTIME}:

     * format defined in RFC 4120 5.2.3

     * {@link #getDelegPolicyState() getDelegPolicyState} method. When
     * delegation policy is not supported, <code>requestDelegPolicy</code>
     * should return silently without throwing an exception.

     * Note: for the Kerberos 5 mechanism, the delegation policy is expressed
     * through the OK-AS-DELEGATE flag in the service ticket. When it's true,
     * the KDC permits delegation to the target server. In a cross-realm
     * environment, in order for delegation be permitted, all cross-realm TGTs
