Hi,

See 

                       A garbage collector for C and C++
                                       
   The Boehm-Demers-Weiser conservative garbage collector can be used as
   a garbage collecting replacement for C malloc or C++ new. It is also
   used by a number of programming language implementations that use C as
   intermediate code. For a more detailed description of the interface,
   see here.
   
   Alternatively, it may be used as a leak detector for C or C++
   programs, though that is not its primary goal.
   
   The garbage collector code is copyrighted by Hans-J. Boehm, Alan J.
   Demers, Xerox Corporation Silicon Graphics. and Hewlett-Packard
   Company. It may be used and copied without payment of a fee under
   minimal restrictions. See the README file in the distribution for more
   details. IT IS PROVIDED AS IS, WITH ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY EXPRESSED
   OR IMPLIED. ANY USE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.
