Won't some functions doing just what addRange() and
removeRange() do solve that kind of problem (if necessary)?
That means, forbidding the GC to scan some memory area for some
time?
Like their C++11 counterparts:
void declare_reachable(void* p); // the region of memory
starting at p
// (and allocated by some
allocator
// operation which remembers
its size)
// must not be collected
template<class T> T* undeclare_reachable(T* p);
void declare_no_pointers(char* p, size_t n); // p[0..n] holds
no pointers
void undeclare_no_pointers(char* p, size_t n);
