Class PlainCRLStoreSpi.CRLAsyncUpdateTask

java.lang.Object

java.util.TimerTask

eu.emi.security.authn.x509.helpers.WeakTimerTask<PlainCRLStoreSpi>

eu.emi.security.authn.x509.helpers.crl.PlainCRLStoreSpi.CRLAsyncUpdateTask

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

Enclosing class:

PlainCRLStoreSpi

private static class PlainCRLStoreSpi.CRLAsyncUpdateTask
extends WeakTimerTask<PlainCRLStoreSpi>

This class follows a quite advanced but important pattern: - it is static so there is no hidden reference from it to the wrapping class - instead it has a weak reference to the wrapping object - when the weak reference is nullified, it means that the wrapping object was discarded by the GC and is no more usable: in this case the update task is automatically stopped.

This mechanism guarantees that even in case that the validator is not disposed manually the memory is freed as needed.
