Method Detail

trimToSize

void trimToSize()

Frees extra memory. This method re-allocates internal structures (of the object) releasing occupied but unused memory. By default, shallow 'trim-to-size' is performed. Important notes: this method must be synchronized outside (typically); OutOfMemoryError is never thrown (should be ignored inside the method).
