    024/**
    025 * A <code>Map</code> implementation that allows mappings to be
    026 * removed by the garbage collector.
    027 * <p>
    028 * When you construct a <code>ReferenceMap</code>, you can specify what kind
    029 * of references are used to store the map's keys and values.
    030 * If non-hard references are used, then the garbage collector can remove
    031 * mappings if a key or value becomes unreachable, or if the JVM's memory is
    032 * running low. For information on how the different reference types behave,
    033 * see {@link java.lang.ref.Reference Reference}.
    034 * </p>
    035 * <p>
    036 * Different types of references can be specified for keys and values.
    037 * The keys can be configured to be weak but the values hard,
    038 * in which case this class will behave like a
    039 * <a href="http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/util/WeakHashMap.html">
    040 * <code>WeakHashMap</code></a>. However, you can also specify hard keys and
    041 * weak values, or any other combination. The default constructor uses
    042 * hard keys and soft values, providing a memory-sensitive cache.
    043 * </p>
    044 * <p>
    045 * This map is similar to
    046 * {@link org.apache.commons.collections4.map.ReferenceIdentityMap ReferenceIdentityMap}.
    047 * It differs in that keys and values in this class are compared using <code>equals()</code>.
    048 * </p>
    049 * <p>
    050 * This {@link java.util.Map Map} implementation does <i>not</i> allow null elements.
    051 * Attempting to add a null key or value to the map will raise a <code>NullPointerException</code>.
    052 * </p>
    053 * <p>
    054 * This implementation is not synchronized.
    055 * You can use {@link java.util.Collections#synchronizedMap} to
    056 * provide synchronized access to a <code>ReferenceMap</code>.
    057 * Remember that synchronization will not stop the garbage collector removing entries.
    058 * </p>
    059 * <p>
    060 * All the available iterators can be reset back to the start by casting to
    061 * <code>ResettableIterator</code> and calling <code>reset()</code>.
    062 * </p>
    063 * <p>
    064 * <strong>Note that ReferenceMap is not synchronized and is not thread-safe.</strong>
    065 * If you wish to use this map from multiple threads concurrently, you must use
    066 * appropriate synchronization. The simplest approach is to wrap this map
    067 * using {@link java.util.Collections#synchronizedMap}. This class may throw
    068 * exceptions when accessed by concurrent threads without synchronization.
    069 * </p>
    070 * <p>
    071 * NOTE: As from Commons Collections 3.1 this map extends <code>AbstractReferenceMap</code>
    072 * (previously it extended AbstractMap). As a result, the implementation is now
    073 * extensible and provides a <code>MapIterator</code>.
    074 * </p>
    075 *
    076 * @param <K> the type of the keys in the map
    077 * @param <V> the type of the values in the map
    078 *
    079 * @see java.lang.ref.Reference
    080 * @since 3.0 (previously in main package v2.1)
