8d954d1cb8 When linking libdispatch, register to create / destroy autorelease pools at the
correct time.  This fixes the intermittent problems when using libdispatch from
LanguageKit, among other things.

34f7baf8d7 Added a fast path for ARC. Now, if a class implements ARC-compatible retain / release / autorelease methods, we don't call them at all. Instead, we inline them in the ARC accessors. This avoids all of the overhead of the message send (lookup and call) and should make ARC quite a bit faster than manual reference counting. 2011-07-03 11:14:29 +00:00

fcc47bc7ce Fix building without GC support. Still need to make sure that some of the GC functions always work, since they are expected to be no-ops in non-GC mode. 2011-05-25 12:25:27 +00:00

9dcc66f7f6 Make sure that associated objects and blocks use GC-scanned memory in GC mode.
Blocks do not yet support __weak bound variables.  This needs fixing before the release.

ad16172625 First pass at implementing Apple-compatible GC using Boehm. Still needs some tidying, but the following work:
- __strong pointers, preventing objects from being freed

_ __weak pointers are automatically freed when the last remaining __strong pointer goes away

- objc_gc_{retain,release}_np() functions, which can be used to implement CFRetain() and CFRelease() (adds an reference count - the object will not be collected until after its last retain is gone.
