GCCollectionMode Enumeration

.NET Framework 4.5

Specifies the behavior for a forced garbage collection.

Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

[SerializableAttribute]
public enum GCCollectionMode

	Member name	Description
	Default	The default setting for this enumeration, which is currently Forced.
	Forced	Forces the garbage collection to occur immediately.
	Optimized	Allows the garbage collector to determine whether the current time is optimal to reclaim objects.

Use the GC.Collect method overload to specify the GCCollectionMode value.

The following example forces a garbage collection for generation 2 objects with the Optimized setting.

using System;

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        GC.Collect(2, GCCollectionMode.Optimized);
    }
}
