In garbage-collected languages, it is often necessary to perform actions on some objects after they are no longer in use and before their memory(2) can be recycled These actions are known as finalization or termination A common use of finalization is to release resources when the corresponding "proxy" object dies For example, an open file might be represented by a stream object When this object has been proven dead by the collector(1), it is certain that the file is no longer in use by the program, and it can and should be closed before the stream is recycled Note that finalization is not, in general, guaranteed to be prompt, and this can cause problems if it is used to manage scarce operating system resources such as file descriptors Many object-oriented languages provide support for finalization, for example, Cedar, Java, Perl 5, and Smalltalk The term finalization is sometimes used to refer to the use of destructors(1), for example in Ada
