Class WeakTypeCache<T>

java.lang.Object

org.jboss.util.collection.WeakTypeCache<T>

Type Parameters:

T - the cached type

public abstract class WeakTypeCache<T>
extends java.lang.Object

A weak class cache that instantiates does not a hold a strong reference to either the classloader or class.

It creates the class specific data in two stages to avoid recursion.

instantiate - creates the data
generate - fills in the details
