Subject: [Caml-list] Mismatch between Gc.full_major() documentation and behaviour
Date: Wed, 11 Dec 2013 12:46:21 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52A8508D.2050000@inria.fr> (raw)
According to the documentation, the sequence
"Gc.major();Gc.full_major()" should be equivalent to "Gc.full_major()",
as Gc.full_major() is told to terminate the current major gc and perform
a complete new cycle.
In my case it is not the case: "Gc.major(); Gc.full_major()" performs
more calls to finalisation functions than "Gc.full_major()".
My context: I use a weak hashtables containing finalised value (with
Gc.finalise).
The documentation of Weak module specifies that the finalization
function is called after the weak hashtbl/array has been set to none.
Does someone know the explanation of this ?
