 <div class="block">A hashtable-based map implementation that uses <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/16/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/ref/WeakReference.html" title="class or interface in java.lang.ref" class="external-link">weak references</a>,
  leaving memory when an entry is not used anymore. An entry in a <code>WeakValueHashMap</code>
  will automatically be removed when its value is no longer in ordinary use. This class is
  similar to the standard <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/16/docs/api/java.base/java/util/WeakHashMap.html" title="class or interface in java.util" class="external-link"><code>WeakHashMap</code></a> class, except that weak references
  apply to values rather than keys.

  <p>Note that this class is <strong>not</strong> a cache, because the entries are discarded
  as soon as the garbage collector determines that they are no longer in use. If caching
  service are wanted, or if concurrency are wanted, consider using <a href="Cache.html" title="class in org.apache.sis.util.collection"><code>Cache</code></a> instead.</p>

  <p>This class is convenient for avoiding the creation of duplicated elements, as in the
  example below:</p>

  <blockquote><pre>K key = ...
 V value;
 <font color="green">synchronized</font> (map) {
     value = map.<b>get</b>(key);
     <font color="green">if</font> (value == <font color="green">null</font>) {
         value = ...; <i><font color="gray">// Create the value here.</font></i>
         map.<b>put</b>(key, value);
     }
 }</pre></blockquote>

  In the above example, the calculation of a new value needs to be fast because it is performed inside a synchronized
  statement blocking all other access to the map. This is okay if that particular <code>WeakValueHashMap</code> instance
  is not expected to be used in a highly concurrent environment.

  <p><code>WeakValueHashMap</code> works with array keys as one would expect. For example, arrays of <code>int[]</code> are
  compared using the <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/16/docs/api/java.base/java/util/Arrays.html#equals(int%5B%5D,int%5B%5D)" title="class or interface in java.util" class="external-link"><code>Arrays.equals(int[], int[])</code></a> method.</p>

  <h2>Thread safety</h2>
  The same <code>WeakValueHashMap</code> instance can be safely used by many threads without synchronization on the part
  of the caller. But if a sequence of two or more method calls need to appear atomic from other threads perspective,
  then the caller can synchronize on <code>this</code>.</div>
