Jikes RVM version number having 'On the fly' implemented

[dsharma]

I want to know which JIkes RVM version have 'On the fly' garbage collector implemented

[Filip Pizlo-2]

Maybe Daniel can correct me, but I thought that the RVM never really had
an "On the Fly" collector - it had a collector that did concurrent
marking, that's it.  The root scanning was stop-the-world - hence it
wasn't a true on-the-fly GC.

There have been implementations of on-the-fly collectors in JikesRVM, but they were not contributed back to the project.

 

Cheers,

Daniel.
