Abstract

This document describes how to write a garbage collector (GC) forthe EVM. It assumes that the reader has a good understanding ofgarbage collection issues and some familiarity with theJavaTM language. The EVM is part of a research projectat Sun Labs. The interfaces described in this document are underdevelopment and are guaranteed to change. In fact, the purpose ofthis document is to solicit feedback to improve the interfacesdescribed herein. As a result, specific product plans should not bebased on this document; everything is expected tochange.1EVM, the Java virtual machine known previouslyas ExactVM, is embedded in Sun's Java 2 SDK Production Release forSolarisTM, available athttp://www.sun.com/solaris/java/.
