[−]
[src]
pub struct Gc {
// some fields omitted
}A mark and sweep garbage collector.
Methods
impl Gc[src]
fn new(generation: usize) -> Gc
Constructs a new garbage collector
fn generation(&self) -> usize
fn new_child_gc(&self) -> Gc
unsafe fn alloc_and_collect<R, D>(&mut self, roots: R, def: D) -> GcPtr<D::Value> where R: Traverseable, D: DataDef + Traverseable, D::Value: Sized + Any
Allocates a new object. If the garbage collector has hit the collection limit a collection will occur.
Unsafe since roots must be able to traverse all accesible GcPtr values.
fn alloc<D>(&mut self, def: D) -> GcPtr<D::Value> where D: DataDef, D::Value: Sized + Any
Allocates a new object.
unsafe fn check_collect<R>(&mut self, roots: R) -> bool where R: Traverseable
unsafe fn collect<R>(&mut self, roots: R) where R: Traverseable
Does a mark and sweep collection by walking from roots. This function is unsafe since
roots need to cover all reachable object.
fn mark<T: ?Sized>(&mut self, value: GcPtr<T>) -> bool
Marks the GcPtr Returns true if the pointer was already marked
