Inspired by http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/938/A-garbage-collection-framework-for-C-Part-II.
- Auto discovery memory relations without any extra code
- this makes TGC much convenient to work with.
- Super lightweight
- only one header & cpp file, easier to integrate.
- no extra threads to collect garbages.
- Non-instrusive
- do not need to replace the globoal new.
- can work with raw pointers perfectly.
- will not affect third party libraries.
- can use in a dependent scope.
- Incremental marking and sweeping
- won't stop the world.
- can control the steps of each collecting call.
- No other dependencies
- easier to integrate.
- Can work with your own memory manage system
- TGC only takes over the collecting task.
- can even works with std::shared_ptr, memory pool, etc.
- exception safe.
- thread safe.
- performance optimization
int main() {
{
gc<int> v = gc_new<int>(1);
}
gc_collect();
return 0;
}
See main.cpp for more tests.
