    public class MainClass
    {
        static void Main()
        {
            MainClass myGCCol = new MainClass();
            WeakReference wkref = new WeakReference(myGCCol);
            myGCCol = null;
            Console.WriteLine("The WeakReference to the object is in generation: {0}", GC.GetGeneration(wkref));
            GC.Collect();
