Java unreachable linked list branch garbage collection -


i have 'disfigured' linked list has following structure:

a -> b -> c -> d -> e           ^           |           g           ^           |           f 

suppose have reference pointing , reference pointing f. want branch f->g deleted memory.

is enough set reference f null , rely on gc remove branch memory?
