Touched Timestamp, Null-Safe Variant

Null-safe Lazy Reference Access

For convenience EclipseStore provides Null-safe static access methods for lazy references.

Method Description

Method	Description
`Lazy.get(Lazy)`	Gets the lazy referenced object, loads it if required. return value: `null` if the lazy reference itself is `null` otherwise the referenced object
`Lazy.peek(Lazy)`	Get the lazy referenced object if it is loaded, no lazy loading is done. If the object has been unloaded before peek will return `null`. return value: `null` if the lazy reference itself is `null` otherwise the current reference without on-demand loading
`Lazy.clear(Lazy)`	Clears the lazy reference if it is not `null`.

Lazy.get(Lazy)

Gets the lazy referenced object, loads it if required.
return value: null if the lazy reference itself is null otherwise the referenced object

Lazy.peek(Lazy)

Get the lazy referenced object if it is loaded, no lazy loading is done.
If the object has been unloaded before peek will return null.
return value: null if the lazy reference itself is null otherwise the current reference without on-demand loading

Lazy.clear(Lazy)

Clears the lazy reference if it is not null.

Touched Timestamp

All lazy references track the time of their last access (creation or querying) as a timestamp in milliseconds. If an instance is deemed timed out by a LazyReferenzManager its subject gets cleared.

The timestamp is currently not public accessible.
