030 * For API internal use only. The cache2k implementation provides the
031 * concrete implementations via this interface. Only one active cache2k
032 * implementation is supported by the API.
033 *
034 * <p>Right now, there is only one implementation within the core package.
035 * Maybe there will be stripped or extended implementations, or special
036 * build implementations, e.g. for Android in the future.
037 *
038 * <p>This is for internal use by the API to locate the implementation.
039 * Do not use or rely on this.
