A cache for storing types without strongly referencing any class loader or type.

Note: In order to clean obsolete class loader references from the map, expungeStaleEntries() must be called regularly. This can happen in a different thread, in custom intervals or on every use of the cache by creating an instance of WithInlineExpunction. This cache is fully thread-safe.

Important: The behavior of a type cache might not be as expected. A class is only eligible for garbage collection once its class loader is eligible for garbage collection. At the same time, a garbage collector is only eligible for garbage collection once all of its classes are eligible for garbage collection. If this cache referenced the cached type strongly, this would never be the case which is why this cache maintains either strong or weak references. In the latter case, a type is typically retained until the last instance of the type is not eligible for garbage collection. With soft references, the type is typically retained until the next full garbage collection where all instances of the type are eligible for garbage collection.

Type parameters:
  • <T> – The type of the key that is used for identifying stored classes per class loader. Such keys must not strongly reference any types or class loaders without potentially corrupting the garbage eligibility of stored classes. As the storage is segmented by class loader, it is normally sufficient to store types by their name.
