I have written a program for sorting an integer type array which involves the creation another array of the same size. After sorting, there is no use of the new array, so I want to completely get rid of it. So far, I've only found questions relating to the deletion of specific types of elements. Some help?
Information (if needed):
Original Array: A[n]
New Array: B[n]
B[n] has to be completely deleted.
The temp array will be "deleted" (or more correctly, the occupied memory will be eligible for garbage collection) automatically whenever you leave the method performing the sorting (assuming of course that the temp array is created inside the method).
There is almost never any need for explicit memory deallocation in Java.
