TIJ c04:Garbage.java why's that?

Posted by Suradera on November 08, 2000 at 4:49 AM

Hi you all,

I've tried inserting a line in 'Garbage.java' and the result is strange, why's that?

...
public void finalize() {
// inserting this code here
System.out.println("int i = " + i );
if(!gcrun) {
...

The result is very strange, sometimes the program never end. (seems if(i==47) never been checked)
Thanks in advance for your clarification.
B.Rgds,
Suradera
