25   * A specialized {@link ConcurrentInitializer} implementation which is similar
26   * to {@link AtomicInitializer}, but ensures that the {@link #initialize()}
27   * method is called only once.
28   *
29   * <p>
30   * As {@link AtomicInitializer} this class is based on atomic variables, so it
31   * can create an object under concurrent access without synchronization.
32   * However, it implements an additional check to guarantee that the
33   * {@link #initialize()} method which actually creates the object cannot be
34   * called multiple times.
35   * </p>
36   * <p>
37   * Because of this additional check this implementation is slightly less
38   * efficient than {@link AtomicInitializer}, but if the object creation in the
39   * {@code initialize()} method is expensive or if multiple invocations of
40   * {@code initialize()} are problematic, it is the better alternative.
41   * </p>
42   * <p>
43   * From its semantics this class has the same properties as
44   * {@link LazyInitializer}. It is a &quot;save&quot; implementation of the lazy
45   * initializer pattern. Comparing both classes in terms of efficiency is
46   * difficult because which one is faster depends on multiple factors. Because
47   * {@link AtomicSafeInitializer} does not use synchronization at all it probably
48   * outruns {@link LazyInitializer}, at least under low or moderate concurrent
49   * access. Developers should run their own benchmarks on the expected target
50   * platform to decide which implementation is suitable for their specific use
51   * case.
52   * </p>
