public class ConfigurableInheritableThreadLocal
extends java.lang.InheritableThreadLocal

An extension of the InheritableThreadLocal class which permits switching between use of thread local variable behaviour, and traditional static value. This allows applications which do not need thread local variables, to avoid the performance penalty which comes from using InheritableThreadLocal.

OHF 1.0.0
