Tasks performed by the collector:
- Let P be a process where a sendDirtyCall or a sendCleanCall is
invoked with a wire representation refering to an object held in Q.
sendDirtyCall(wrep)
:
- open a socket connection with Q if none is available.
- send (DIRTY, the identifier in wrep) through the socket to
notify Q that P references now that object.
cleanDirtyCall(wrep)
:
- open a socket connection with Q if none is available.
- send (CLEAN, the identifier in wrep) through the socket to
notify Q that P no longer references that object.
