由于各种原因，可能存在诸多不足，欢迎斧正！
Java中没有指针的概念，而引用就是一个弱化的指针，保证开发不能任意操作内存。最近整理了一下之前不明白的各种级别引用：强引用、软引用、弱引用、虚引用，它们的特点和应用场景汇总如下：
1、强引用
如果一个对象具有强引用，GC绝不会回收它；当内存空间不足，JVM宁愿抛出OutOfMemoryError错误。一般new出来的对象都是强引用，如下
//强引用
User strangeReference=new User();2、软引用
如果一个对象具有软引用，当内存空间不足，GC会回收这些对象的内存，使用软引用构建敏感数据的缓存。
在JVM中，软引用是如下定义的，可以通过一个时间戳来回收，下面引自JVM：
public class SoftReference<T> extends Reference<T> {
/**
* Timestamp clock, updated by the garbage collector
*/
static private long clock;
/**
* Timestamp updated by each invocation of the get method. The VM may use
* this field when selecting soft references to be cleared, but it is not
* required to do so.
*/
private long timestamp;
/**
* Creates a new soft reference that refers to the given object. The new
* reference is not registered with any queue.
*
* @param referent object the new soft reference will refer to
*/
public SoftReference(T referent) {
super(referent);
this.timestamp = clock;
}
/**
* Creates a new soft reference that refers to the given object and is
* registered with the given queue.
*
* @param referent object the new soft reference will refer to
* @param q the queue with which the reference is to be registered,
* or <tt>null</tt> if registration is not required
*
*/
public SoftReference(T referent, ReferenceQueue<? super T> q) {
super(referent, q);
this.timestamp = clock;
}
/**
* Returns this reference object's referent. If this reference object has
* been cleared, either by the program or by the garbage collector, then
* this method returns <code>null</code>.
*
* @return The object to which this reference refers, or
* <code>null</code> if this reference object has been cleared
*/
public T get() {
T o = super.get();
if (o != null && this.timestamp != clock)
this.timestamp = clock;
return o;
}
}
//软引用
SoftReference<User>softReference=new SoftReference<User>(new User());
strangeReference=softReference.get();//通过get方法获得强引用
3、弱引用
如果一个对象具有弱引用，在GC线程扫描内存区域的过程中，不管当前内存空间足够与否，都会回收内存，利用jdk中的ThreadLocal就是弱引用的，具体间下面的详细说明。
在JVM中，弱引用是如下定义的，下面引自JVM：
public class WeakReference<T> extends Reference<T> {
/**
* Creates a new weak reference that refers to the given object. The new
* reference is not registered with any queue.
*
* @param referent object the new weak reference will refer to
*/
public WeakReference(T referent) {
super(referent);
}
/**
* Creates a new weak reference that refers to the given object and is
* registered with the given queue.
*
* @param referent object the new weak reference will refer to
* @param q the queue with which the reference is to be registered,
* or <tt>null</tt> if registration is not required
*/
public WeakReference(T referent, ReferenceQueue<? super T> q) {
super(referent, q);
}
}弱引用的声明的借助强引用或者匿名对象，使用泛型WeakReference<T>，具体如下：
//弱引用
WeakReference<User>weakReference=new WeakReference<User>(new User());4、虚引用
如果一个对象仅持有虚引用，在任何时候都可能被垃圾回收，虚引用与软引用和弱引用的一个区别在于：虚引用必须和引用队列联合使用，虚引用主要用来跟踪对象 被垃圾回收的活动。
在JVM中，虚引用是如下定义的，下面引自JVM：
public class PhantomReference<T> extends Reference<T> {
/**
* Returns this reference object's referent. Because the referent of a
* phantom reference is always inaccessible, this method always returns
* <code>null</code>.
*
* @return <code>null</code>
*/
public T get() {
return null;
}
/**
* Creates a new phantom reference that refers to the given object and
* is registered with the given queue.
*
* <p> It is possible to create a phantom reference with a <tt>null</tt>
* queue, but such a reference is completely useless: Its <tt>get</tt>
* method will always return null and, since it does not have a queue, it
* will never be enqueued.
*
* @param referent the object the new phantom reference will refer to
* @param q the queue with which the reference is to be registered,
* or <tt>null</tt> if registration is not required
*/
public PhantomReference(T referent, ReferenceQueue<? super T> q) {
super(referent, q);
}
}//虚引用
PhantomReference<User> phantomReference=new PhantomReference<User>(new User(),new ReferenceQueue<User>());
5、总结
下面是一段关于强引用、软引用、弱引用、虚引用的程序：
import java.lang.ref.*;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Set;
class User {
private String name;
public User()
{}
public User(String name)
{
this.name=name;
}
@Override
public String toString() {
return name;
}
public void finalize(){
System.out.println("Finalizing ... "+name);
}
}
/**
* Created by jinxu on 15-4-25.
*/
public class ReferenceDemo {
private static ReferenceQueue<User> referenceQueue = new ReferenceQueue<User>();
private static final int size = 10;
public static void checkQueue(){
/* Reference<? extends User> reference = null;
while((reference = referenceQueue.poll())!=null){
System.out.println("In queue : "+reference.get());
}*/
Reference<? extends User> reference = referenceQueue.poll();
if(reference!=null){
System.out.println("In queue : "+reference.get());
}
}
public static void testSoftReference()
{
Set<SoftReference<User>> softReferenceSet = new HashSet<SoftReference<User>>();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
SoftReference<User> ref = new SoftReference<User>(new User("Soft " + i), referenceQueue);
System.out.println("Just created: " + ref.get());
softReferenceSet.add(ref);
}
System.gc();
checkQueue();
}
public static void testWeaKReference()
{
Set<WeakReference<User>> weakReferenceSet = new HashSet<WeakReference<User>>();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
WeakReference<User> ref = new WeakReference<User>(new User("Weak " + i), referenceQueue);
System.out.println("Just created: " + ref.get());
weakReferenceSet.add(ref);
}
System.gc();
checkQueue();
}
public static void testPhantomReference()
{
Set<PhantomReference<User>> phantomReferenceSet = new HashSet<PhantomReference<User>>();
for (int i = 0; i < size; i++) {
PhantomReference<User> ref =
new PhantomReference<User>(new User("Phantom " + i), referenceQueue);
System.out.println("Just created: " + ref.get());
phantomReferenceSet.add(ref);
}
System.gc();
checkQueue();
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
testSoftReference();
testWeaKReference();
testPhantomReference();
}
}结果为

六、ThreadLocal
ThreadLocal是java多线程中 牺牲空间获取线程隔离的方法，避免上锁，即每个线上保持对ThreadLocal<T>对象T的副本。线程在访问变量时，操作的是该线程独有的变量副本，彻底封闭在每个访问的线程中，并发问题也完全消除了。
上面原图摘自博客园：原图 ，在此表示感谢。
每个thread中都存在一个map，map的类型是ThreadLocal.ThreadLocalMap。Map中的key为一个threadlocal实例。这个Map的确使用了弱引用，不过弱引用只是针对key。每个key都弱引用指向threadlocal。当把threadlocal实例置为null以后，没有任何强引用指向threadlocal实例，所以threadlocal将会被gc回收。但是，我们的value却不能回收，因为存在一条从current thread连接过来的强引用。只有当前thread结束以后，current thread就不会存在栈中，强引用断开，Current Thread， Map，value将全部被GC回收。

/**
* Heuristically scan some cells looking for stale entries.
* This is invoked when either a new element is added, or
* another stale one has been expunged. It performs a
* logarithmic number of scans, as a balance between no
* scanning (fast but retains garbage) and a number of scans
* proportional to number of elements, that would find all
* garbage but would cause some insertions to take O(n) time.
*
* @param i a position known NOT to hold a stale entry. The
* scan starts at the element after i.
*
* @param n scan control: {@code log2(n)} cells are scanned,
* unless a stale entry is found, in which case
* {@code log2(table.length)-1} additional cells are scanned.
* When called from insertions, this parameter is the number
* of elements, but when from replaceStaleEntry, it is the
* table length. (Note: all this could be changed to be either
* more or less aggressive by weighting n instead of just
* using straight log n. But this version is simple, fast, and
* seems to work well.)
*
* @return true if any stale entries have been removed.

从程序运行结果可以看出，虚引用形同虚设，它所引用的对象随时可能被垃圾回收器回收，具有弱引用的对象拥有稍微长一点的生命周期，当垃圾回收器执行回收操作时，有可能被垃圾回收器回收，具有软引用的对象拥有更长的生命周期，但在Java虚拟机认为内存不足的情况下，也是会被垃圾回收器回收的。
由于时间有限，在写博文的过程中参考过一些文献，在此表示感谢；同时鉴于水平原因，你难免有不足之处，欢迎斧正！
