Garbage collection is also known as automatic memory management, which is used for automatic recycling of dynamically allocated memory. IOS development at Tekriti, provides you the best iphone memory management calls for you at compile time. 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. 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. GC basically attempts to take care of two basic scenarios remove garbage and avoid dangling pointers. Like a lot of programming terms, this is a simple concept which has an odd name. Garbage Collection- It automatically frees (or garbage-collects) objects that are no longer needed. Emoticon:cat In my post about ShedSkin a couple of days ago I said that I was unsure how ShedSkin handled memory management and whether it has any sort of garbage collection. Of course depending on the implementation it can lead to less memory efficiency than hand coded C or C++. ShedSkin Part II: Garbage Collection and Memory Management. Garbage Collection in computer science is a form of automatic memory management. Incorrect Notion #4 : For any sort of automatic dynamic scaling, you need Scalr or RightScale. Garbage Collection does exactly what it's more fancier name “Automatic dynamic memory management” suggests. Automatic reference counting for memory management in ios apps (supporting ipad, ipod and iphone application development). Automatic garbage collection is the feature of dynamic languages which most reduces programmer headaches. 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. As I discussed in my last coder from the hard task.
