Write a garbage collector in your language of choice

Does anyone want to write an exact, compacting GC with me? We can also write a simple scheme interpreter to test it.

I will. Mind if I modify an existing one?


while (true) do
  truck drive
  bins empty
  compact trash
end

It would be an interesting project, but that I don't know much about how GC implementation, only the general ideas. I'll have to do a bit of reading: both technical papers and actual implementations to be of any help.

If you do end up implementing it, alone or with someone else, please post updates about it on /prog/

<?php
function garbage(void) {
  while(true) {
     return true;
  }
}

I can point you towards some existing implementations:

Mono 2.8 will have a compacting GC¹ (currently, they use Boehm GC, which is a conservative GC), it may be interesting to look at how they're implementing that.

You seem to have missed the (Object) (Message) syntax.

That's no Ruby I've ever seen. What's it supposed to be? Lua?
