Hello, a short question relating to the garbage collector: Assume that we have a managed application using n threads T_1, ..., T_n. Let thread T_i trigger a garbage collection. Which of the following assumptions are correct?
(1) All threads except T_i are stopped and the garbage collection runs in thread T_i. (2) The garbage collector runs with the priority of T_i. This means that a thread T_k, which has a priority higher than T_i, can interrupt the garbage collector. (3) The Boehm garbage collector can be safely interrupted. (4) An interrupting thread T_k can trigger another garbage collection. What happens then? Just for the case that I'm completely wrong, can someone try to explain the mechanism to me in a few words?
