+/** the server-side interface to a weak object.
+
+
+
+ This interface is proxy to the adapted object.
+ In order to make it possible to have weak references to objects,
+ the XAdapter interface must be implemented to provide
+ a weak adapter for the clients.
+
+
Concept of weak referencing:
+
+
+ This module specifies the interfaces for implementing and using
+ weak references.
+
+
+
+ The sense of weak references is to hold a reference to an object
+ without affecting the lifetime of the object. That means that a weak
+ reference may become invalid, at any time, if the referenced object dies.
+
+
+ The following interfaces describe one way to handle weak references
+ by providing a weak adapter. The weak object has to provide this
+ adapter if anyone wants to hold a weak reference. To separate their
+ lifetimes, the adapter and the original object must not share the same
+ reference counter. The weak reference is in fact only a hard reference
+ to the adapter, which knows - but does not hold - the original object.
+ That means that the implementation and synchronization of weak
+ referencing is the responsibility of the object. The following
+ interfaces are involved in the concept of weak referencing:
+
+
+ -
+ XWeak
+
+ - is the server-side interface of the referred object. This
+ referred object must support the XAdapter interface.
+
+
+ -
+ XReference
+
+ - is a client-side interface which must be implemented by
+ the holder of any weak reference. It is used for notification
+ when the adapted object dies.
+
+
+
+

+ to the adapter have to be notified to release the adapter.
