Hello...

With that kind of function :

 public static Date testDate(String StrDate)
 {
   SimpleDateFormat fmt;

   f = new SimpleDateFormat("MM/dd/yyyy");
   f.setLenient(false);

   try
   {
     return fmt.parse(StrDate);
   }
   catch(ParseException e)
   {
     return null;
   }
 }

I suppose fmt will be destroyed by the garbage collector when I will
get out of the function.
But, Do you know a method to "see" when the garbage do this ?

Overall, do you know How can I just really see what's free and what is
not ?
May be with finalize, but not very cool...

Thanks...
