Question #160893 on Sikuli changed: https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/160893
RaiMan posted a new comment: as far as I understand: -- bar=foo() - makes the foo object and creates the instance variables -- bar.main() - the existing instance variables of foo are used and - the newly created region reference (region.exists(img)) overwrites the old one - the old region reference should be eligible for garbage collection - no need to do anything from your side BTW: -- immutable as such has nothing to do with garbage collection. it only means, that an object cannot be changed in place. "Changing" immutables always means creating a new object. --- java command line options -- there seem to be (besides the heap options -Xms/-Xmx) some more options to influence the internal usage of the heap related to GC. -- some logging can be ordered (not tested ;-) -verbose:gc # gc info displayed -Xloggc:file # gc info written to file -- this is a nice article on Java GC http://javarevisited.blogspot.com/2011/04/garbage-collection-in-java.html#.Tfr7-M3Qbw8 You received this question notification because you are a member of Sikuli Drivers, which is an answer contact for Sikuli. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~sikuli-driver More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
