public MutableGenericContext createContext()

Description copied from interface: GenericContextFactory

This method creates a new instance of a MutableGenericContext. It will use a HashMapFactory and delegate to GenericContextFactory.createContext(MapFactory) .
ATTENTION:
Such context is usually suitable even if child-contexts are created and passed to other threads while the original thread is modifying the original context as proved in the according test-case. However HashMap.get(Object) is not academically thread-safe so if you need mission-critical safety, you might want to pass ConcurrentHashMapFactory to GenericContextFactory.createContext(MapFactory).

Specified by:

createContext in interface GenericContextFactory

Returns:

the new context.
