Method Detail

hasReferences

boolean hasReferences(Nd nd,
                      long address)

Returns true if this field knows of any remaining incoming references to this object. This is used by the implementation of FieldManyToOne to determine whether or not a refcounted object should be deleted after a reference is removed.

Implementations should return false if the refcount is 0 or true if the refcount is nonzero.
