46 * A weak hash map has only weak references to the key. This means that it
47 * allows the key to be garbage collected if it is not used otherwise. If
48 * this happens, the entry will eventually disappear from the map,
49 * asynchronously.
51 * <p>A weak hash map makes most sense when the keys doesn't override the
52 * <code>equals</code> method: If there is no other reference to the
53 * key nobody can ever look up the key in this table and so the entry
54 * can be removed. This table also works when the <code>equals</code>
55 * method is overloaded, such as String keys, but you should be prepared
56 * to deal with some entries disappearing spontaneously.
58 * <p>Other strange behaviors to be aware of: The size of this map may
59 * spontaneously shrink (even if you use a synchronized map and synchronize
60 * it); it behaves as if another thread removes entries from this table
61 * without synchronization. The entry set returned by <code>entrySet</code>
62 * has similar phenomenons: The size may spontaneously shrink, or an
63 * entry, that was in the set before, suddenly disappears.
65 * <p>A weak hash map is not meant for caches; use a normal map, with
66 * soft references as values instead, or try {@link LinkedHashMap}.
68 * <p>The weak hash map supports null values and null keys. The null key
69 * is never deleted from the map (except explictly of course). The
70 * performance of the methods are similar to that of a hash map.
72 * <p>The value objects are strongly referenced by this table. So if a
73 * value object maintains a strong reference to the key (either direct
74 * or indirect) the key will never be removed from this map. According
75 * to Sun, this problem may be fixed in a future release. It is not
76 * possible to do it with the jdk 1.2 reference model, though.
