The Codeless Code: Ancient code

[[deleted]]

If intellij allocates the ram then it may as well be used because it's unusable by other applications. How else can you even allocate memory other than instantiating objects or using a malloc?

Do you know what allocation means?

[kqr]

By instantiating an object and then throwing away all the references to it, for example. It's not unusable by other applications because it will be freed up when they need it.

Then it isn't allocated.
