6 * Invoke all remaining finalizers that haven't yet been run.
7 * This is needed for strict compliance with the Java standard,
8 * which can make the runtime guarantee that all finalizers are run.
9 * This is problematic for several reasons:
10 * 1) It means that finalizers, and all methods calle by them,
11 * must be prepared to deal with objects that have been finalized in
12 * spite of the fact that they are still referenced by statically
13 * allocated pointer variables.
14 * 1) It may mean that we get stuck in an infinite loop running
15 * finalizers which create new finalizable objects, though that's
16 * probably unlikely.
17 * Thus this is not recommended for general use.
19 void GC_finalize_all();
22 * A version of GC_register_finalizer that allows the object to be
23 * finalized before the objects it references. This is again error
24 * prone, in that it makes it easy to accidentally reference finalized
25 * objects. Again, recommended only for JVM implementors.
