[zeromq-dev] How to do "free()" in a non-c environment ?

[Laurent Alebarde]

C needs "free" and requires all the memory management to be performed 
under the sole responsability of the programmer.  Other languages 
usually have a garbage collector, and you don't need to take care of it. 
Smalltalk is such a language (ref 
<http://www.gnu.org/software/smalltalk/manual/html_node/GC.html>).
