/**
 * A <code>MemoryHandler</code> maintains a circular buffer of
 * log records.
 *
 * <p><strong>Configuration:</strong> Values of the subsequent
 * <code>LogManager</code> properties are taken into consideration
 * when a <code>MemoryHandler</code> is initialized.
 * If a property is not defined, or if it has an invalid
 * value, a default is taken without an exception being thrown.
 *
 * <ul>
 * <li><code>java.util.MemoryHandler.level</code> - specifies
 *     the initial severity level threshold. Default value:
 *     <code>Level.ALL</code>.</li>
 * <li><code>java.util.MemoryHandler.filter</code> - specifies
 *     the name of a Filter class. Default value: No Filter.</li>
 * <li><code>java.util.MemoryHandler.size</code> - specifies the
 *     maximum number of log records that are kept in the circular
 *     buffer.  Default value: 1000.</li>
 * <li><code>java.util.MemoryHandler.push</code> - specifies the
 *     <code>pushLevel</code>. Default value:
 *     <code>Level.SEVERE</code>.</li>
 * <li><code>java.util.MemoryHandler.target</code> - specifies the
 *     name of a subclass of {@link Handler} that will be used as the
 *     target handler.  There is no default value for this property;
 *     if it is not set, the no-argument MemoryHandler constructor
 *     will throw an exception.</li>
 * </ul>
