Constructor Detail

GenMSMatureTraceLocal

public GenMSMatureTraceLocal(Trace global,
                             GenCollector plan)

Parameters:

global - the global trace class to use

plan - the state of the generational collector

Method Detail

traceObject

public ObjectReference traceObject(ObjectReference object)

Description copied from class: TraceLocal

This method is the core method during the trace of the object graph. The role of this method is to:

1. Ensure the traced object is not collected.
2. If this is the first visit to the object enqueue it to be scanned.
3. Return the forwarded reference to the object.

Overrides:

traceObject in class GenMatureTraceLocal

Parameters:

object - The object to be traced.

Returns:

The new reference to the same object instance.

isLive

public boolean isLive(ObjectReference object)

Description copied from class: GenMatureTraceLocal

Is the specified object live?

Overrides:

isLive in class GenMatureTraceLocal

Parameters:

object - The object.

Returns:

true if the object is live.

willNotMoveInCurrentCollection

public boolean willNotMoveInCurrentCollection(ObjectReference object)

Description copied from class: GenMatureTraceLocal

Return true if this object is guaranteed not to move during this collection (i.e. this object is definitely not an unforwarded object).

Overrides:

willNotMoveInCurrentCollection in class GenMatureTraceLocal

Parameters:

object - the object that might move

Returns:

true if this object is guaranteed not to move during this collection.
