/**
 * An instance of this class represents a value that is provided per (thread) context classloader.
 *
 * <p>
 * Occasionally it is necessary to store data in "global" variables (including uses of the Singleton pattern). In applications which have only a single
 * classloader such data can simply be stored as "static" members on some class. When multiple class loaders are involved, however, this approach can fail; in
 * particular, this doesn't work when the code may be run within a servlet container or a j2ee container, and the class on which the static member is defined is
 * loaded via a "shared" classloader that is visible to all components running within the container. This class provides a mechanism for associating data with a
 * ClassLoader instance, which ensures that when the code runs in such a container each component gets its own copy of the "global" variable rather than
 * unexpectedly sharing a single copy of the variable with other components that happen to be running in the same container at the same time (eg servlets or
 * EJBs.)
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * This class is strongly patterned after the java.lang.ThreadLocal class, which performs a similar task in allowing data to be associated with a particular
 * thread.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * When code that uses this class is run as a "normal" application, ie not within a container, the effect is identical to just using a static member variable to
 * store the data, because Thread.getContextClassLoader always returns the same classloader (the system classloader).
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Expected usage is as follows:
 * </p>
 *
 * <pre>
 * <code>
 *  public class SomeClass {
 *    private static final ContextClassLoaderLocal&lt;String&gt; global
 *      = new ContextClassLoaderLocal&lt;String&gt;() {
 *          protected String initialValue() {
 *              return new String("Initial value");
 *          };
 *
 *    public void testGlobal() {
 *      String s = global.get();
 *      System.out.println("global value:" + s);
 *      buf.set("New Value");
 *    }
 * </code>
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * <strong>Note:</strong> This class takes some care to ensure that when a component which uses this class is "undeployed" by a container the component-specific
 * classloader and all its associated classes (and their static variables) are garbage-collected. Unfortunately there is one scenario in which this does
 * <em>not</em> work correctly and there is unfortunately no known workaround other than ensuring that the component (or its container) calls the "unset" method
 * on this class for each instance of this class when the component is undeployed. The problem occurs if:
 * <ul>
 * <li>the class containing a static instance of this class was loaded via a shared classloader, and</li>
 * <li>the value stored in the instance is an object whose class was loaded via the component-specific classloader (or any of the objects it refers to were
 * loaded via that classloader).</li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * The result is that the map managed by this object still contains a strong reference to the stored object, which contains a strong reference to the
 * classloader that loaded it, meaning that although the container has "undeployed" the component the component-specific classloader and all the related classes
 * and static variables cannot be garbage-collected. This is not expected to be an issue with the commons-beanutils library as the only classes which use this
 * class are BeanUtilsBean and ConvertUtilsBean and there is no obvious reason for a user of the BeanUtils library to subclass either of those classes.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * <strong>Note:</strong> A WeakHashMap bug in several 1.3 JVMs results in a memory leak for those JVMs.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * <strong>Note:</strong> Of course, all of this would be unnecessary if containers required each component to load the full set of classes it needs, that is,
 * avoided providing classes loaded via a "shared" classloader.
 * </p>
