/*
* The Finalizer thread keeps a phantom reference to this object. When the client (for example, a
* map built by MapMaker) no longer has a strong reference to this object, the garbage collector
* will reclaim it and enqueue the phantom reference. The enqueued reference will trigger the
* Finalizer to stop.
*
* If this library is loaded in the system class loader, FinalizableReferenceQueue can load
* Finalizer directly with no problems.
*
* If this library is loaded in an application class loader, it's important that Finalizer not
* have a strong reference back to the class loader. Otherwise, you could have a graph like this:
*
* Finalizer Thread runs instance of -> Finalizer.class loaded by -> Application class loader
* which loaded -> ReferenceMap.class which has a static -> FinalizableReferenceQueue instance
*
* Even if no other references to classes from the application class loader remain, the Finalizer
* thread keeps an indirect strong reference to the queue in ReferenceMap, which keeps the
* Finalizer running, and as a result, the application class loader can never be reclaimed.
*
* This means that dynamically loaded web applications and OSGi bundles can't be unloaded.
*
* If the library is loaded in an application class loader, we try to break the cycle by loading
* Finalizer in its own independent class loader:
*
* System class loader -> Application class loader -> ReferenceMap -> FinalizableReferenceQueue ->
* etc. -> Decoupled class loader -> Finalizer
*
* Now, Finalizer no longer keeps an indirect strong reference to the static
* FinalizableReferenceQueue field in ReferenceMap. The application class loader can be reclaimed
* at which point the Finalizer thread will stop and its decoupled class loader can also be
* reclaimed.
*
* If any of this fails along the way, we fall back to loading Finalizer directly in the
* application class loader.
*
* NOTE: The tests for this behavior (FinalizableReferenceQueueClassLoaderUnloadingTest) fail
* strangely when run in JDK 9. We are considering this a known issue. Please see
* https://github.com/google/guava/issues/3086 for more information.
