Garbage collector in .Net?


Does .Net has garbage collector or I have to free (Set myVariable = Nothing)
each object I created with "New"?

Are there any known applications out there used to test the performance of the .NET garbage collector over a long period of time? Basically I need an application that creates objects, uses them, and then throws them away and then monitors the garbage collection and store statistics on it, preferably in C#. I want to know what is the longest period of time that an application may lock up while garbage collection is processing. Thanks!

Greetings. I'm creating a project that as a intricate relation between object kind of like a set where each object in the set can be connect to a subset of object of the set and objects not in the set can connect to objects in the set. Every object inherits a interface to allow for a mark and sweep garbage collector (GC) and my implementation works correctly and efficiently but only in a single thread. How can I garbage collect in a...

Hello everyone. I have written a garbage collector for standard C++ application. It has following main features. 1) Deterministic Finalization Providing deterministic finalization, the system can manage resources as well as objects. The programming style is clear and easy, conforming to RAII (Resource Acquisition Is Initialization) idiom of C++ programmers. The memory usage is very efficient, acyclic garbage is

I have been reading (or at least googling) about the potential addition of optional garbage collection to C++0x. There are numerous myths and whatnot with very little detailed information. Will this work be library based or language based and will it be based on that of managed C++? Then of course there are the finer technical questions raised (especially due to pointer abuse). Is a GC for C++ just a pipe dream or is there a lot of work...

Abstract -------- Garbage collection is a method of managing memory by using a "collector" library. Periodically, or triggered by an allocation request, the collector looks for unused memory chunks and recycles them. This memory allocation strategy has been adapted to C (and C++) by the library written by Hans J Boehm and Alan J Demers. Why a Garbage Collector? -----------------------

Hi everyone, A program that I'm helping to code seems to slow down drastically during initialisation, and looking at the profiling graph, it seems to be the garbage collector thats slowing things down. I must point out that a heck of a lot of data are being read in and manipulated, and I was wondering if there were any metrics to show much of a performance hit is occurring during the initialisation? If it turns out that the GC is having a...

Hello, traditionally, in C++, dynamically allocated memory has been managed explicitly by calling "delete" in the application code. Now, in addition to the standard library strings, containers, and auto_ptrs, gurus suggest that may be better to use a reference-counted smart pointer, or a garbage-collector. But in which cases it is better to use one technique and in which cases another? IOW, which is the design criterion?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
