Garbage Collector question?

[yogesh@xxxxxxxxx (Yogesh Pandeya)]

Hi Magesh,
Another sequence on gc!!!! Anyway.....

Putting System.gc() doesn't guarantee that it will run when you want to. =
Its VM's prerogative to run gc or not. It is guaranteed run at the point =
you put System.gc(), only if you run the application with -noclassgc (or =
-Xnoclassgc) option.=20
Other point to note is, if you are creating objects temporarily, you can =
use an object pool and reuse your objects. There is good article this =
month's Javaworld.
Hope it helps,
cheers,
Yogesh

Hi,

Does this guarantee that the System.gc() will run without getting =
context
switched
because it has a low priority??

thanks,
mmp.

We also had a similar problem.
U can run garbage collector explicitly by writing the following line of
code,
System.gc();
I hope it helps you.
