一个利用System.gc和finalize研究Java垃圾回收机制的练习

源代码：

package basic;

public class finalizeTest {

	private String name;
	public void finalize(){
		System.out.println("finalize called: " + this.name);
		System.out.println("Thread id in finalize: " + Thread.currentThread().getId());
	}
	
	public finalizeTest(String name){
		this.name = name;
	}
	
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		
		System.out.println("Main Thread id: " + Thread.currentThread().getId());
		finalizeTest test = new finalizeTest("Jerry");
		test.hashCode();
		/* 这个新创建出来的对象实例没有任何变量指向它，因此System.gc()调用之后就会被回收 
		 * 而且能发现Scala实例执行finalize方法的线程并不是主线程，打印出的线程ID不一样
		 * */
		new finalizeTest("Scala");

		System.gc();
	}

}

打印输出：

Main Thread id: 1
finalize called: Scala
Thread id in finalize: 3
