GC Methods
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
![]() ![]() | AddMemoryPressure(Int64) | Informs the runtime of a large allocation of unmanaged memory that should be taken into account when scheduling garbage collection. |
![]() ![]() | CancelFullGCNotification() | Cancels the registration of a garbage collection notification. |
![]() ![]() | Collect() | Forces an immediate garbage collection of all generations. |
![]() ![]() | Collect(Int32) | Forces an immediate garbage collection from generation 0 through a specified generation. |
![]() ![]() | Collect(Int32, GCCollectionMode) | Forces a garbage collection from generation 0 through a specified generation, at a time specified by a GCCollectionMode value. |
![]() ![]() | Collect(Int32, GCCollectionMode, Boolean) | Forces a garbage collection from generation 0 through a specified generation, at a time specified by a GCCollectionMode value, with a value specifying whether the collection should be blocking. |
![]() ![]() | Collect(Int32, GCCollectionMode, Boolean, Boolean) | Forces a garbage collection from generation 0 through a specified generation, at a time specified by a GCCollectionMode value, with values that specify whether the collection should be blocking and compacting. |
![]() ![]() | CollectionCount(Int32) | Returns the number of times garbage collection has occurred for the specified generation of objects. |
![]() ![]() | EndNoGCRegion() | Ends the no GC region latency mode. |
![]() ![]() | GetGeneration(Object^) | Returns the current generation number of the specified object. |
![]() ![]() | GetGeneration(WeakReference^) | Returns the current generation number of the target of a specified weak reference. |
![]() ![]() | GetTotalMemory(Boolean) | Retrieves the number of bytes currently thought to be allocated. A parameter indicates whether this method can wait a short interval before returning, to allow the system to collect garbage and finalize objects. |
![]() ![]() | KeepAlive(Object^) | References the specified object, which makes it ineligible for garbage collection from the start of the current routine to the point where this method is called. |
![]() ![]() | RegisterForFullGCNotification(Int32, Int32) | Specifies that a garbage collection notification should be raised when conditions favor full garbage collection and when the collection has been completed. |
![]() ![]() | RemoveMemoryPressure(Int64) | Informs the runtime that unmanaged memory has been released and no longer needs to be taken into account when scheduling garbage collection. |
![]() ![]() | ReRegisterForFinalize(Object^) | Requests that the system call the finalizer for the specified object for which SuppressFinalize has previously been called. |
![]() ![]() | SuppressFinalize(Object^) | Requests that the common language runtime not call the finalizer for the specified object. |
![]() ![]() | TryStartNoGCRegion(Int64) | Attempts to disallow garbage collection during the execution of a critical path if a specified amount of memory is available. |
![]() ![]() | TryStartNoGCRegion(Int64, Boolean) | Attempts to disallow garbage collection during the execution of a critical path if a specified amount of memory is available, and controls whether the garbage collector does a full blocking garbage collection if not enough memory is initially available. |
![]() ![]() | TryStartNoGCRegion(Int64, Int64) | Attempts to disallow garbage collection during the execution of a critical path if a specified amount of memory is available for the large object heap and the small object heap. |
![]() ![]() | TryStartNoGCRegion(Int64, Int64, Boolean) | Attempts to disallow garbage collection during the execution of a critical path if a specified amount of memory is available for the large object heap and the small object heap, and controls whether the garbage collector does a full blocking garbage collection if not enough memory is initially available. |
![]() ![]() | WaitForFullGCApproach() | Returns the status of a registered notification for determining whether a full, blocking garbage collection by the common language runtime is imminent. |
![]() ![]() | WaitForFullGCApproach(Int32) | Returns, in a specified time-out period, the status of a registered notification for determining whether a full, blocking garbage collection by the common language runtime is imminent. |
![]() ![]() | WaitForFullGCComplete() | Returns the status of a registered notification for determining whether a full, blocking garbage collection by the common language runtime has completed. |
![]() ![]() | WaitForFullGCComplete(Int32) | Returns, in a specified time-out period, the status of a registered notification for determining whether a full, blocking garbage collection by common language the runtime has completed. |
![]() ![]() | WaitForPendingFinalizers() | Suspends the current thread until the thread that is processing the queue of finalizers has emptied that queue. |
