Java Programming :: Garbage Collections
-
When is the B object, created in line 3, eligible for garbage collection?void start() { A a = new A(); B b = new B(); a.s(b); b = null; /* Line 5 */ a = null; /* Line 6 */ System.out.println("start completed"); /* Line 7 */ }
-
Where will be the most chance of the garbage collector being invoked?class HappyGarbage01 { public static void main(String args[]) { HappyGarbage01 h = new HappyGarbage01(); h.methodA(); /* Line 6 */ } Object methodA() { Object obj1 = new Object(); Object [] obj2 = new Object[1]; obj2[0] = obj1; obj1 = null; return obj2[0]; } }
-
At what point is the Bar object, created on line 6, eligible for garbage collection?class Bar { } class Test { Bar doBar() { Bar b = new Bar(); /* Line 6 */ return b; /* Line 7 */ } public static void main (String args[]) { Test t = new Test(); /* Line 11 */ Bar newBar = t.doBar(); /* Line 12 */ System.out.println("newBar"); newBar = new Bar(); /* Line 14 */ System.out.println("finishing"); /* Line 15 */ } }
-
class Test { private Demo d; void start() { d = new Demo(); this.takeDemo(d); /* Line 7 */ } /* Line 8 */ void takeDemo(Demo demo) { demo = null; demo = new Demo(); } }

public class X
{
public static void main(String [] args)
{
X x = new X();
X x2 = m1(x); /* Line 6 */
X x4 = new X();
x2 = x4; /* Line 8 */
doComplexStuff();
}
static X m1(X mx)
{
mx = new X();
return mx;
}
}
After line 8 runs. how many objects are eligible for garbage collection?
-
public Object m()
{
Object o = new Float(3.14F);
Object [] oa new Object[l];
oa[0] = o; /* Line 5 */
o = null; /* Line 6 */
oa[0] = null; /* Line 7 */
return o; /* Line 8 */
}
When is the Float object, created in line 3, eligible for garbage collection?

What allows the programmer to destroy an object x?
