/**
* The WeakReference list uses <code>java.lang.ref.WeakReference</code>s to store its contents. In contrast to the
* WeakHashtable, this list knows how to restore missing content, so that garbage collected elements can be restored
* when they are accessed.
* <p/>
* By default this list can contain 25 elements, where the first element is stored using a strong reference, which is
* not garbage collected.
* <p/>
* Restoring the elements is not implemented, concrete implementations will have to override the
* <code>restoreChild(int)</code> method. The <code>getMaxChildCount</code> method defines the maxmimum number of
* children in the list. When more than <code>maxChildCount</code> elements are contained in this list, add will always
* return false to indicate that adding the element failed.
* <p/>
* To customize the list, override createReference to create a different kind of reference.
* <p/>
* This list is able to add or replace elements, but inserting or removing of elements is not possible.

/**
* Creates and returns a copy of this object. The precise meaning of "copy" may depend on the class of the object.
* The general intent is that, for any object <tt>x</tt>, the expression: <blockquote>
* <pre>
* x.clone() != x</pre></blockquote>
* will be true, and that the expression: <blockquote>
* <pre>
* x.clone().getClass() == x.getClass()</pre></blockquote>
* will be <tt>true</tt>, but these are not absolute requirements. While it is typically the case that: <blockquote>
* <pre>
* x.clone().equals(x)</pre></blockquote>
* will be <tt>true</tt>, this is not an absolute requirement.
* <p/>
* By convention, the returned object should be obtained by calling <tt>super.clone</tt>. If a class and all of its
* superclasses (except <tt>Object</tt>) obey this convention, it will be the case that <tt>x.clone().getClass() ==
* x.getClass()</tt>.
* <p/>
* By convention, the object returned by this method should be independent of this object (which is being cloned). To
* achieve this independence, it may be necessary to modify one or more fields of the object returned by
* <tt>super.clone</tt> before returning it. Typically, this means copying any mutable objects that comprise the
* internal "deep structure" of the object being cloned and replacing the references to these objects with references
* to the copies. If a class contains only primitive fields or references to immutable objects, then it is usually
* the case that no fields in the object returned by <tt>super.clone</tt> need to be modified.
* <p/>
* The method <tt>clone</tt> for class <tt>Object</tt> performs a specific cloning operation. First, if the class of
* this object does not implement the interface <tt>Cloneable</tt>, then a <tt>CloneNotSupportedException</tt> is
* thrown. Note that all arrays are considered to implement the interface <tt>Cloneable</tt>. Otherwise, this method
* creates a new instance of the class of this object and initializes all its fields with exactly the contents of the
* corresponding fields of this object, as if by assignment; the contents of the fields are not themselves cloned.
* Thus, this method performs a "shallow copy" of this object, not a "deep copy" operation.
* <p/>
* The class <tt>Object</tt> does not itself implement the interface <tt>Cloneable</tt>, so calling the <tt>clone</tt>
* method on an object whose class is <tt>Object</tt> will result in throwing an exception at run time.
*
* @return a clone of this instance.
* @throws CloneNotSupportedException if the object's class does not support the <code>Cloneable</code> interface.
* Subclasses that override the <code>clone</code> method can also throw this
* exception to indicate that an instance cannot be cloned.
* @see Cloneable
