WeakReference Class
Represents a weak reference, which references an object but still leaves it prone to garbage collection.
Namespace: System
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
[SerializableAttribute]
public class WeakReference
Remarks
The common language runtime (CLR) garbage collection mechanism reclaims inaccessible (unreachable) memory that is allocated to a particular object. An object becomes inaccessible if all references to it become invalid (for example, if you set those references to a null reference).
