OK, noone has been tool-less for memory management for a LONG time. Most
|
|
systems you just add a flag and memory is tracked (that's how i've always
|
|
done it) or worst case yuo have to run it through one of the 2.3E7 tools
|
|
where you simply recompile and it it tells you where the leaks are.
|
|
|
|
Memory management is a non-issue for anyone that has any idea at all how the
|
|
hardware functions. Granted, this takes 30 minutes to go over, and so is far
|
|
beyond the scope of the "Learn Java in 90 minutes without thinking" book
|
|
every Java programmer learned from.
