One doubt. You have mentioned about method area where static variables are stored. I hope method area is different from the perm space of heap.
You have mentioned class metadat is stored perm space of heap.
In another site, http://www.artima.com/insidejvm/ed2/jvm2.html, it is said that class metadata is stored in the method area.
So Could you please clarify
1. whether method area or perm space actually stores class metadata?
2. Whether gc occurs in method area?
