C++ Interface to the Boehm Collector

    John R. Ellis and Jesse Hull 

This interface provides access to the Boehm collector.  It provides
basic facilities similar to those described in "Safe, Efficient
Garbage Collection for C++", by John R. Elis and David L. Detlefs
(ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/pub/ellis/gc).

All heap-allocated objects are either "collectable" or
"uncollectable".  Programs must explicitly delete uncollectable
objects, whereas the garbage collector will automatically delete
collectable objects when it discovers them to be inaccessible.
Collectable objects may freely point at uncollectable objects and vice
versa.

Objects allocated with the built-in "::operator new" are uncollectable.

Objects derived from class "gc" are collectable.  For example:

    class A: public gc {...};
    A* a = new A;       // a is collectable. 

Collectable instances of non-class types can be allocated using the GC
(or UseGC) placement:

    typedef int A[ 10 ];
    A* a = new (GC) A;

Uncollectable instances of classes derived from "gc" can be allocated
using the NoGC placement:

    class A: public gc {...};
    A* a = new (NoGC) A;   // a is uncollectable.

Both uncollectable and collectable objects can be explicitly deleted
with "delete", which invokes an object's destructors and frees its
storage immediately.

A collectable object may have a clean-up function, which will be
invoked when the collector discovers the object to be inaccessible.
An object derived from "gc_cleanup" or containing a member derived
from "gc_cleanup" has a default clean-up function that invokes the
object's destructors.  Explicit clean-up functions may be specified as
an additional placement argument:

    A* a = ::new (GC, MyCleanup) A;

An object is considered "accessible" by the collector if it can be
reached by a path of pointers from static variables, automatic
variables of active functions, or from some object with clean-up
enabled; pointers from an object to itself are ignored.

Thus, if objects A and B both have clean-up functions, and A points at
B, B is considered accessible.  After A's clean-up is invoked and its
storage released, B will then become inaccessible and will have its
clean-up invoked.  If A points at B and B points to A, forming a
cycle, then that's considered a storage leak, and neither will be
collectable.  See the interface gc.h for low-level facilities for
handling such cycles of objects with clean-up.

The collector cannot guarrantee that it will find all inaccessible
objects.  In practice, it finds almost all of them.


Cautions:

1. Be sure the collector has been augmented with "make c++".

2.  If your compiler supports the new "operator new[]" syntax, then
add -DOPERATOR_NEW_ARRAY to the Makefile.

If your compiler doesn't support "operator new[]", beware that an
array of type T, where T is derived from "gc", may or may not be
allocated as a collectable object (it depends on the compiler).  Use
the explicit GC placement to make the array collectable.  For example:

    class A: public gc {...};
    A* a1 = new A[ 10 ];        // collectable or uncollectable?
    A* a2 = new (GC) A[ 10 ];   // collectable

3. The destructors of collectable arrays of objects derived from
"gc_cleanup" will not be invoked properly.  For example:

    class A: public gc_cleanup {...};
    A* a = new (GC) A[ 10 ];    // destructors not invoked correctly

Typically, only the destructor for the first element of the array will
be invoked when the array is garbage-collected.  To get all the
destructors of any array executed, you must supply an explicit
clean-up function:

    A* a = new (GC, MyCleanUp) A[ 10 ];

(Implementing clean-up of arrays correctly, portably, and in a way
that preserves the correct exception semantics requires a language
extension, e.g. the "gc" keyword.)

4. Compiler bugs:

* Solaris 2's CC (SC3.0) doesn't implement t->~T() correctly, so the
destructors of classes derived from gc_cleanup won't be invoked.
You'll have to explicitly register a clean-up function with
new-placement syntax.

* Evidently cfront 3.0 does not allow destructors to be explicitly
invoked using the ANSI-conforming syntax t->~T().  If you're using
cfront 3.0, you'll have to comment out the class gc_cleanup, which
uses explicit invocation.

5. GC name conflicts:

Many other systems seem to use the identifier "GC" as an abbreviation
for "Graphics Context".  Since version 5.0, GC placement has been replaced
by UseGC.  GC is an alias for UseGC, unless GC_NAME_CONFLICT is defined.
