GC
Technology Dictionary -> GCSearch:
GC
1. garbage collection.
2. A storage allocator with garbage collection by
Hans-J. Boehm and Alan J. Demers. Gc is a plug-in replacement
for C's malloc. Since the collector does not require
pointers to be tagged, it does not attempt to ensure that
all inaccessible storage is reclaimed.
