Tell me about the internal working of Garbage collector?..

Answer / kanth

The main objective of GC is Memory Management....
Gc wil take initiative when ever the application meemory is
low...we hav Finalize() method which runs implicitly...and
Dispose() method which we hav to kal Explicity....

Gc identifies the unused objects with reference counting
concept.
Finalize() method runs implicitly and free the resources if
the object havin no references...in the case of Dispose()
method it wont mind if the reference r ther.....

Gc maintain 4 Generation...start with 0 ..ends with 3
if GC released the resources using
Finalize method() still u can get the object..coz dis
method havin backup...it stores in generation0-3

Answer / mahesh kotekar

GC = Garbage Collector. Its non-deterministic process. When
there are no references to an object and when the system
memory is too low. Then GC runs to deallocate those memory
for non refernced objects. It also moves objects from one
memory allocation to another.
