package java.lang.management;
/**
* <p>
* Provides access to information about the memory used
* by the virtual machine. An instance of this bean is
* obtained by calling
* {@link ManagementFactory#getMemoryMXBean()}.
* </p>
* <p>
* The Java virtual machine uses two types of memory:
* heap memory and non-heap memory. The heap is the
* storage location for class and array instances, and is
* thus the main source of memory associated with running
* Java programs. The heap is created when the virtual
* machine is started, and is periodically scanned by the
* garbage collector(s), in order to reclaim memory which
* is no longer used (e.g. because an object reference has
* gone out of scope).
* </p>
* <p>
* Non-heap memory is used by the virtual machine in order to
* perform its duties. Thus, it mainly acts as the storage
* location for structures created as a result of parsing Java
* bytecode, such as the constant pool and constructor/method
* declarations. When a Just-In-Time (JIT) compiler is in
* operation, this will use non-heap memory to store compiled
* bytecode.
* </p>
* <p>
* Both types of memory may be non-contiguous. During the
* lifetime of the virtual machine, the size of both may
* either change (either expanding or contracting) or stay
* the same.
* </p>
* <h2>Notifications</h2>
* <p>
* Implementations of this interface also conform to the
* {@link javax.management.NotificationEmitter} interface,
* and supply two notifications reflecting memory usage.
* These notifications occur when a usage threshold is
* exceeded; for more details of these, see the documentation
* of {@link MemoryPoolMXBean}. If threshold monitoring
* is supported, then a notification will be emitted each time
* the threshold is crossed. Another notification will not
* be emitted unless the usage level has dropped below the
* threshold again in the meantime.
* </p>
* <p>
* The emitted notifications are instances of
* {@link javax.management.Notification}, with a type of
* either
* {@link java.lang.management.MemoryNotificationInfo#MEMORY_THRESHOLD_EXCEEDED}
* or
* {@link java.lang.management.MemoryNotificationInfo#MEMORY_COLLECTION_THRESHOLD_EXCEEDED}
* (depending on whether the notification refers to the general
* usage threshold or the garbage collection threshold) and an instance
* of {@link java.lang.management.MemoryNotificationInfo} contained
* in the user data section. This is wrapped inside an instance
* of {@link javax.management.openmbean.CompositeData}, as explained
* in the documentation for
* {@link java.lang.management.MemoryNotificationInfo}.
* </p>
