/**

 * Represents implementations of URLConnection caches. An instance of

 * such a class can be registered with the system by doing

 * ResponseCache.setDefault(ResponseCache), and the system will call

 * this object in order to:

 *

 *    <ul><li>store resource data which has been retrieved from an

 *            external source into the cache</li>

 *         <li>try to fetch a requested resource that may have been

 *            stored in the cache</li>

 *    </ul>

 *

 * The ResponseCache implementation decides which resources

 * should be cached, and for how long they should be cached. If a

 * request resource cannot be retrieved from the cache, then the

 * protocol handlers will fetch the resource from its original

 * location.

 *

 * The settings for URLConnection#useCaches controls whether the

 * protocol is allowed to use a cached response.

 * For more information on HTTP caching, see <a

 * href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt"><i>RFC&nbsp;2616: Hypertext

 * Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1</i></a>
