[Groovy] Class ExplicitGarbageCollectionRule

java.lang.Object
  org.codenarc.rule.AbstractAstVisitorRule
      groovy.org.codenarc.rule.basic.ExplicitGarbageCollectionRule

class ExplicitGarbageCollectionRule
extends AbstractAstVisitorRule

Calls to System.gc(), Runtime.getRuntime().gc(), and System.runFinalization() are not advised. Code should have the same behavior whether the garbage collection is disabled using the option -Xdisableexplicitgc or not. Moreover, "modern" jvms do a very good job handling garbage collections. If memory usage issues unrelated to memory leaks develop within an application, it should be dealt with JVM options rather than within the code itself.
