Scott asked:
"About 2 weeks I posted a question regarding a product called "Great Circle"
that is advertised in the latest issue of Object magazine (p 63). The ad
claims to provide garbage collection for C/C++ by simply relinking. They
also claim to have used there product in X Windows and improved performance
on the "X11 performance benchmarks by 25%". Since I never saw my post nor
any follow ups or references to it, here it is again.
Anyway, has anybody used this or a similar product? What is the possibility
that it might be used with GNAT if it performs as advertised, and as I said
before, I have no reason to believe that it doesn't."
It is perfectly possible to write a conservative garbage collector that
runs as described above, and sure, to the extent it works, it probably
works fine with GNAT.
