A link type defines the terms and conditions for clearing its target and is a factory for

Nested Class Summary
`private static class`	`Link.Type.SoftLink<T>` Adapts its subclass to the `Link` interface.
`private static class`	`Link.Type.StrongLink<T>` A strong reference.
`private static class`	`Link.Type.WeakLink<T>` Adapts its subclass to the `Link` interface.

Enum Constant Summary
`SOFT` This reference type clears the target of a link according to the terms and conditions of a `SoftReference`.
`STRONG` This reference type never clears the target of a link.
`WEAK` This reference type clears the target of a link according to the terms and conditions of a `WeakReference`.

Enum Constant Detail

STRONG

public static final Link.Type STRONG

This reference type never clears the target of a link.

SOFT

public static final Link.Type SOFT

This reference type clears the target of a link according to the terms and conditions of a SoftReference.

WEAK

public static final Link.Type WEAK

This reference type clears the target of a link according to the terms and conditions of a WeakReference.

Method Detail

values

public static Link.Type[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (Link.Type c : Link.Type.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:: an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static Link.Type valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:: name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
Returns:: the enum constant with the specified name
Throws:: IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name; NullPointerException - if the argument is null

newLink

@NonNull
public abstract <T> Link<T> newLink(@Nullable
                                            T target)

Returns a new typed link to the given nullable target.
