SCJP Study Notes

Garbage Collection

• Garbage collection can not be forced.
• Calling System.gc() or Runtime.gc() methods makes only suggestions.
• Garbage Collector runs in low memory situations and informs the object when it is about to be garbage collected.
• Setting an object's reference to null makes it a candidate for garbage collection.
• Java guaranties that the finalize method will be run before an object is garbage collected.
• An object becomes eligible for garbage collection when it becomes unreachable.
