Garbage Collection does exactly what it's more fancier name “Automatic dynamic memory management” suggests. One of the duty of a GC system is to automate this process by tracking down (using various algorithms) such objects and reclaim the memory used by them automatically. The CLR comes with a garbage collector (GC) which is a great thing. GC basically attempts to take care of two basic scenarios remove garbage and avoid dangling pointers. An alternate approach to memory management that is now commonly utilized, especially by most modern object-oriented languages, is automatic management by a program called a garbage collector“ There are various Garbage Collection algorithms and each platform implements its own. Cheap Garbage Collection Algorithms Automatic Dynamic Memory Management Onsale garbage disposal. We need so, we write atomic in front of the operation name. The GC has been around for many years and we accepted it as I am going to state and the single and the most important thing: GC provides automatic dynamic memory management. Thankfully, modern languages with automatic garbage collection avoid this problem (by pretending it doesn't exist). Now we are prepared to define the most basic algorithms used for garbage collection. My college professors constantly encouraged us to "Go back to first principles." Consider a computing task that runs for some amount of time and then halts. As a consequence GC prevents the problems that were (and still . As I discussed in my last coder from the hard task. If a task dynamically allocates more memory than is available, it must re-use some (or crash!) This is irrespective of the means of re-use, whether manual deallocation as in malloc/free or automatic deallocation with a garbage collector. I used to read article like the one on C++ User Journal about the “The Rule of Three” or rule of thumb like if you dynamically allocate memory you need the Rule of Three.
