  An advanced hash table supporting configurable garbage collection semantics of keys and values, optional referential-equality, full concurrency of retrievals, and adjustable expected concurrency for updates. This table is designed around specific advanced use-cases. If there is any doubt whether this table is for you, you most likely should be using `ConcurrentHashMap` instead. This table supports strong, weak, and soft keys and values. By default keys are weak, and values are strong. Such a configuration offers similar behavior to `WeakHashMap`, entries of this table are periodically removed once their corresponding keys are no longer referenced outside of this table. In other words, this table will not prevent a key from being discarded by the garbage collector. Once a key has been discarded by the collector, the corresponding entry is no longer visible to this table; however, the entry may occupy space until a future table operation decides to reclaim it. For this reason, summary functions such as `size` and `isEmpty` might return a value greater than the observed number of entries. In order to support a high level of concurrency, stale entries are only reclaimed during blocking (usually mutating) operations. Enabling soft keys allows entries in this table to remain until their space is absolutely needed by the garbage collector. This is unlike weak keys which can be reclaimed as soon as they are no longer referenced by a normal strong reference. The primary use case for soft keys is a cache, which ideally occupies memory that is not in use for as long as possible. By default, values are held using a normal strong reference. This provides the commonly desired guarantee that a value will always have at least the same life-span as it's key. For this reason, care should be taken to ensure that a value never refers, either directly or indirectly, to its key, thereby preventing reclamation. If this is unavoidable, then it is recommended to use the same reference type in use for the key. However, it should be noted that non-strong values may disappear before their corresponding key. While this table does allow the use of both strong keys and values, it is recommended to use `ConcurrentHashMap` for such a configuration, since it is optimized for that case. Just like `ConcurrentHashMap`, this class obeys the same functional specification as `Hashtable`, and includes versions of methods corresponding to each method of `Hashtable`. However, even though all operations are thread-safe, retrieval operations do not entail locking, and there is not any support for locking the entire table in a way that prevents all access. This class is fully interoperable with `Hashtable` in programs that rely on its thread safety but not on its synchronization details.

  Retrieval operations (including `get`) generally do not block, so may overlap with update operations (including `put` and `remove`). Retrievals reflect the results of the most recently completed update operations holding upon their onset. For aggregate operations such as `putAll` and `clear`, concurrent retrievals may reflect insertion or removal of only some entries. Similarly, Iterators and Enumerations return elements reflecting the state of the hash table at some point at or since the creation of the iterator/enumeration. They do not throw `ConcurrentModificationException`. However, iterators are designed to be used by only one thread at a time.

  The allowed concurrency among update operations is guided by the optional `concurrencyLevel` constructor argument (default `16`), which is used as a hint for internal sizing. The table is internally partitioned to try to permit the indicated number of concurrent updates without contention. Because placement in hash tables is essentially random, the actual concurrency will vary. Ideally, you should choose a value to accommodate as many threads as will ever concurrently modify the table. Using a significantly higher value than you need can waste space and time, and a significantly lower value can lead to thread contention. But overestimates and underestimates within an order of magnitude do not usually have much noticeable impact. A value of one is appropriate when it is known that only one thread will modify and all others will only read. Also, resizing this or any other kind of hash table is a relatively slow operation, so, when possible, it is a good idea to provide estimates of expected table sizes in constructors.

  This class and its views and iterators implement all of the optional methods of the `Map` and `Iterator` interfaces.

  Like `Hashtable` but unlike `HashMap`, this class does not allow `null` to be used as a key or value.

  This class is a member of the Java Collections Framework.

  - ### Method Detail

    - #### isEmpty

          public boolean isEmpty()

      Returns `true` if this map contains no key-value mappings.
      Specified by:
        `isEmpty` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `isEmpty` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        `true` if this map contains no key-value mappings

    - #### size

          public int size()

      Returns the number of key-value mappings in this map. If the map contains more than `Integer.MAX_VALUE` elements, returns `Integer.MAX_VALUE`.
      Specified by:
        `size` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `size` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        the number of key-value mappings in this map

    - #### get

          public V get(Object key)

      Returns the value to which the specified key is mapped, or `null` if this map contains no mapping for the key.

      More formally, if this map contains a mapping from a key `k` to a value `v` such that `key.equals(k)`, then this method returns `v`; otherwise it returns `null`. (There can be at most one such mapping.)

      Specified by:
        `get` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `get` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null

    - #### containsKey

          public boolean containsKey(Object key)

      Tests if the specified object is a key in this table.
      Specified by:
        `containsKey` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `containsKey` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `key` - possible key
      Returns:
        `true` if and only if the specified object is a key in this table, as determined by the `equals` method; `false` otherwise.
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null

    - #### containsValue

          public boolean containsValue(Object value)

      Returns `true` if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value. Note: This method requires a full internal traversal of the hash table, and so is much slower than method `containsKey`.
      Specified by:
        `containsValue` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `containsValue` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `value` - value whose presence in this map is to be tested
      Returns:
        `true` if this map maps one or more keys to the specified value
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified value is null

    - #### contains

          public boolean contains(Object value)

      Legacy method testing if some key maps into the specified value in this table. This method is identical in functionality to `containsValue(java.lang.Object)`, and exists solely to ensure full compatibility with class `Hashtable`, which supported this method prior to introduction of the Java Collections framework.
      Parameters:
        `value` - a value to search for
      Returns:
        `true` if and only if some key maps to the `value` argument in this table as determined by the `equals` method; `false` otherwise
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified value is null

    - #### put

          public V put(K key,
              V value)

      Maps the specified key to the specified value in this table. Neither the key nor the value can be null.

      The value can be retrieved by calling the `get` method with a key that is equal to the original key.

      Specified by:
        `put` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `put` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `key` - key with which the specified value is to be associated
        `value` - value to be associated with the specified key
      Returns:
        the previous value associated with `key`, or `null` if there was no mapping for `key`
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key or value is null

    - #### putIfAbsent

          public V putIfAbsent(K key,
                      V value)

      Specified by:
        `putIfAbsent` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        the previous value associated with the specified key, or `null` if there was no mapping for the key
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key or value is null

    - #### putAll

          public void putAll(Map<? extends K,? extends V> m)

      Copies all of the mappings from the specified map to this one. These mappings replace any mappings that this map had for any of the keys currently in the specified map.
      Specified by:
        `putAll` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `putAll` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `m` - mappings to be stored in this map

    - #### remove

          public V remove(Object key)

      Removes the key (and its corresponding value) from this map. This method does nothing if the key is not in the map.
      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `remove` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`
      Parameters:
        `key` - the key that needs to be removed
      Returns:
        the previous value associated with `key`, or `null` if there was no mapping for `key`
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null

    - #### remove

          public boolean remove(Object key,
                       Object value)

      Specified by:
        `remove` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key is null

    - #### replace

          public boolean replace(K key,
                        V oldValue,
                        V newValue)

      Specified by:
        `replace` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if any of the arguments are null

    - #### replace

          public V replace(K key,
                  V value)

      Specified by:
        `replace` in interface `ConcurrentMap<K,V>`
      Returns:
        the previous value associated with the specified key, or `null` if there was no mapping for the key
      Throws:
        `NullPointerException` - if the specified key or value is null

    - #### clear

          public void clear()

      Removes all of the mappings from this map.
      Specified by:
        `clear` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `clear` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`

    - #### purgeStaleEntries

          public void purgeStaleEntries()

      Removes any stale entries whose keys have been finalized. Use of this method is normally not necessary since stale entries are automatically removed lazily, when blocking operations are required. However, there are some cases where this operation should be performed eagerly, such as cleaning up old references to a ClassLoader in a multi-classloader environment. Note: this method will acquire locks, one at a time, across all segments of this table, so if it is to be used, it should be used sparingly.

    - #### keySet

          public Set<K> keySet()

      Returns a `Set` view of the keys contained in this map. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Set.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll`, and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

      The view's `iterator` is a "weakly consistent" iterator that will never throw `ConcurrentModificationException`, and guarantees to traverse elements as they existed upon construction of the iterator, and may (but is not guaranteed to) reflect any modifications subsequent to construction.

      Specified by:
        `keySet` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `keySet` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`

    - #### values

          public Collection<V> values()

      Returns a `Collection` view of the values contained in this map. The collection is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the collection, and vice-versa. The collection supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from this map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Collection.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll`, and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

      The view's `iterator` is a "weakly consistent" iterator that will never throw `ConcurrentModificationException`, and guarantees to traverse elements as they existed upon construction of the iterator, and may (but is not guaranteed to) reflect any modifications subsequent to construction.

      Specified by:
        `values` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Overrides:
        `values` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`

    - #### entrySet

          public Set<Map.Entry<K,V>> entrySet()

      Returns a `Set` view of the mappings contained in this map. The set is backed by the map, so changes to the map are reflected in the set, and vice-versa. The set supports element removal, which removes the corresponding mapping from the map, via the `Iterator.remove`, `Set.remove`, `removeAll`, `retainAll`, and `clear` operations. It does not support the `add` or `addAll` operations.

      The view's `iterator` is a "weakly consistent" iterator that will never throw `ConcurrentModificationException`, and guarantees to traverse elements as they existed upon construction of the iterator, and may (but is not guaranteed to) reflect any modifications subsequent to construction.

      Specified by:
        `entrySet` in interface `Map<K,V>`
      Specified by:
        `entrySet` in class `AbstractMap<K,V>`

          public Enumeration<K> keys()

      Returns an enumeration of the keys in this table.
      Returns:
        an enumeration of the keys in this table

        `keySet()`

    - #### elements

          public Enumeration<V> elements()

      Returns an enumeration of the values in this table.
      Returns:
        an enumeration of the values in this table
