057     * Wraps a deterministic cache policy with a <q>Level-2</q> cache based on
058     * J2SE's {@link SoftReference soft references}. Soft references allow
059     * this cache to keep references to objects until the memory they occupy
060     * is required elsewhere.
061     * <p>
062     * Since the {@link CachePolicy} interface requires an event be fired
063     * when an object is evicted, and the event contains the actual object,
064     * this class cannot be a stand-alone implementation of
065     * <code>CachePolicy</code>. This limitation arises because Java References
066     * does not support notification before references are cleared; nor do
067     * they support reaching soft referents. Therefore, this wrapper cache
068     * aggressively notifies evictions: events are fired when the objects are
069     * evicted from the internal cache. Consequently, the soft cache may return
070     * a non-null object when <code>get( )</code> is called, even if that
071     * object was said to have been evicted.
072     * <p>
073     * The current implementation uses a hash structure for its internal key
074     * to value mappings.
075     * <p>
076     * Note: this component's publicly exposed methods are not threadsafe;
077     * potentially concurrent code should synchronize on the cache instance.
