ICLRGCManager Interface
Provides methods that allow a host to interact with the common language runtime's garbage collection system.
Note
Starting with .NET Framework 4.5, you can use the ICLRGCManager2::SetGCStartupLimitsEx method to set the size of a garbage collection segment and the maximum size of the garbage collection system's generation 0 to values greater than the DWORD limit that is imposed by the SetGCStartupLimits method.
Methods
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Collect Method | Forces a garbage collection for the specified generation. |
| GetStats Method | Gets a set of current statistics about the garbage collection system. |
| SetGCStartupLimits Method | Sets the size of a garbage collection segment and the maximum size of the garbage collection system's generation 0. |
Remarks
The common language runtime (CLR) implements its garbage collection mechanism with the managed GC type. For more information about the garbage collection system, see Garbage Collection.
