reset

public void reset()

Description copied from interface: ReflectionManager

This resets any internal caches. This will free up memory in some implementations, at the cost of possibly being a bit slower if its services are needed again.

Ideally the ReflectionManager should be discarded after use, but sometimes that's not posible. This method is intended to be used when there is reasonable expectation for te ReflectionManager to no longer be needed, while having the option to still use it in case the assumption doesn't hold true.

Careful: after invoking this method, returned X* instances will no longer honour any identity equality contract with X* instances which have been returned before resetting the cache.

This operation does not affect the configuration.
