Hi Claes,
Nice trick.
thanks!
You made MethodType(s) and WeakEntry(s) holding them equal,
respecting the equals()/hashCode() contract. When WeakEntry looses
the referent it is left equal to itself only, which is enough for
expunging it from map.
Good summary. Do you think we need a few comments to spell out these
intricacies?
Yes, perhaps just pointers from the two equals() methods to each other,
explaining that they are actually one method which is split into two
unrelated classes.
