->A sub process of JVM known as garbage collector does this job. In c and c++ applications, application developer is responsible to explicitly release dynamic allocated memory. If forgot it leaks to memory leak in java, the problem doesn’t rise.

Additional information:
Memory leaks mean that dynamic allocated memory which is not released that is not useful to another application. That is known as unreachable object.
In c – malloc function allocate dynamic memory.
Free function used for the dynamic memory is released.
In c++ New and delete used for dynamic memory allocate and release.

Q) What is the purpose of JDBC?

A) -> Java application can do any task by making a method (function) call. ->java method calls are not understandable to database management system. They can understand only SQL statements. ->SQL statements can’t be directly used in a java application. Java compiler complains. ->therefore, we say that java environment and database environment are heterogeneous to each other. Purpose of JDBC: ->for any kind of java application to communicate with any kind of database (management system) in a standard manner, JDBC is used.
