/**
* A map, each entry of which maps a Java raw type to an
* instance of that type. In addition to implementing {@code Map}, the additional type-safe
* operations {@link #putInstance} and {@link #getInstance} are available.
*
* Like any other {@code Map}, this map may contain entries for primitive types,
* and a primitive type and its corresponding wrapper type may map to different values.
*
* Implementations
*
*
* - {@link ImmutableClassToInstanceMap}
*
- {@link MutableClassToInstanceMap}
*
*
* To map a generic type to an instance of that type, use {@link
* com.google.common.reflect.TypeToInstanceMap} instead.
*
*
See the Guava User Guide article on {@code
* ClassToInstanceMap}.
*
* @param the common supertype that all values will share. When in doubt, just use {@link
* Object}, or use {@code @Nullable Object} to allow null values.
