How can an object be destroyed in Java?
Explanation
This cannot be done manually. Garbage Collector only can destroy an object. If all the links that refer to an object are assigned to a null value, the object itself will become available for garbage collection.
Theory
  • The Java interpreter knows exactly what objects and arrays it has allocated. It can also figure out which local variables refer to which objects and arrays, and which objects and arrays refer to which other objects and arrays. Thus, the interpreter is able to determine when an allocated object is no longer referred to by any other object or variable. When the interpreter finds such an object, it knows it can destroy the object safely and does so. The garbage collector can also detect and destroy cycles of objects that refer to each other, but are not referenced by any other active objects. Any such cycles are also reclaimed.
