As a result, garbage collectors can also +inform you of memory leaks (if they find memory they can free, it means +you have lost all of your pointers to it, but you didn't free it). + +This package has two libraries and some include files: +libgc.a - a garbage collection library, replaces malloc/free/new/delete/etc + with versions that do automatic garbage collection +libleak.a - a leak detection library, which is just libgc.a compiled with + different switches. + +C programs may be linked against either of these, and should run (with +GC or leak detection) without change. C++ programs must include a header +to use garbage collection, though leak detection should work without +such source code modifications.
