```
public class ThreadedAuthorityFactory
extends AbstractAuthorityFactory
implements BufferedFactory
```
An authority factory that caches all objects created by an other factory. All createFoo(String) methods first looks if a previously created object exists for the given code. If such an object exists, it is returned. Otherwise, the object creation is delegated to the authority factory specified at creation time, and the result is cached in this buffered factory.
Objects are cached by strong references, up to the amount of objects specified at construction time. If a greater amount of objects are cached, the oldest ones will be retained through a weak reference instead of a strong one. This means that this buffered factory will continue to returns them as long as they are in use somewhere else in the Java virtual machine, but will be discarted (and recreated on the fly if needed) otherwise.

- Constructor Detail
  - ThreadedAuthorityFactory
```
protected ThreadedAuthorityFactory(AbstractAuthorityFactory factory)
```
    Constructs an instance wrapping the specified factory with a default number of entries to keep by strong reference.
    This constructor is protected because subclasses must declare which of the DatumAuthorityFactory, CSAuthorityFactory, CRSAuthorityFactory and CoordinateOperationAuthorityFactory interfaces they choose to implement.
    
    Parameters:
    
    factory - The factory to cache. Can not be null.
  - ThreadedAuthorityFactory
```
protected ThreadedAuthorityFactory(AbstractAuthorityFactory factory,
                                   int maxStrongReferences)
```
    Constructs an instance wrapping the specified factory. The maxStrongReferences argument specify the maximum number of objects to keep by strong reference. If a greater amount of objects are created, then the strong references for the oldest ones are replaced by weak references.
    This constructor is protected because subclasses must declare which of the DatumAuthorityFactory, CSAuthorityFactory, CRSAuthorityFactory and CoordinateOperationAuthorityFactory interfaces they choose to implement.
    
    Parameters:
    
    factory - The factory to cache. Can not be null.

```
    Returns a finder which can be used for looking up unidentified objects. The default implementation delegates lookup to the underlying backing store and caches the result.
    
    Overrides:
    
    getIdentifiedObjectFinder in class AbstractAuthorityFactory
    
    Parameters:
    
    type - The type of objects to look for. Should be a GeoAPI interface like GeographicCRS.class, but this method accepts also implementation class. If the type is unknown, use IdentifiedObject.class. A more accurate type may help to speed up the search, since it reduces the amount of tables to scan in some implementations like the factories backed by EPSG database.
    
    Returns:
    
    A finder to use for looking up unidentified objects.
    
    Throws:
    
    FactoryException - if the finder can not be created.

    dispose in class AbstractAuthorityFactory
    
    Throws:
    
    FactoryException - if an error occured while disposing the factory.
