# xo-alloc -- arena allocator and incremental garbage collector
|
|
|
|
# Rules for writing garbage-collected classes.
|
|
|
|
Topics
|
|
* allocation - allocate Objects (inheriting xo::Object) before owned scratch space.
|
|
Can relax this if/when abandon the bad-for-locality use of two pointers
|
|
into to-space to keep track of grey objects. Want to use stack anyway
|
|
so we can do depth-first search.
|
|
* destructors - can omit except for finalization
|
|
* assignment - MUST USE Object::assign_member() to assign pointers to gc-owned memory.
|
|
Only necessary for old->new pointers, so don't need to worry about this
|
|
for initialization.
|
|
* finalization - not supported (yet)
|
|
|
|
- padding - use IAlloc::with_padding(z) for hand-allocated objects.
