public class Finalizer extends Object implements Runnable
com.google.common.base.FinalizableReference
.
While this class is public, we consider it to be *internal* and not part of our published API. It is public so we can access it reflectively across class loaders in secure environments.
This class can't depend on other Google Collections code. If we were to load this class in the same class loader as the rest of Google Collections, this thread would keep an indirect strong reference to the class loader and prevent it from being garbage collected. This poses a problem for environments where you want to throw away the class loader. For example, dynamically reloading a web application or unloading an OSGi bundle.
com.google.common.base.FinalizableReferenceQueue
loads this class
in its own class loader. That way, this class doesn't prevent the main
class loader from getting garbage collected, and this class can detect when
the main class loader has been garbage collected and stop itself.
