Supplier<T>
All Known Implementing Classes:
SimpleLazyValue, ThreadSafeLazyValue
public interface LazyValue<T> extends Supplier<T>
Represents a Lazy-loaded value which is loaded only on the first call to get. Though it is not a functional interface, it does extend Supplier so it can easily drop-in directly to various standard APIs. The interface makes no gaurantees as to thead safety, however specific implementations may.
