A GC dont' try to recognize a valid/invalid reference, it is invoked to free unused memory, which it assume point to valid memory. Anyway I still don't understand the goal of this discussion. Do you want to add some managed object in fpc? OK, but I suggest to start studing how GC works in Java, Python and dotnet. As for me I'd rather ask for not managed Interfaces in Delphi (fpc ones are ok).
