Macro must be used in the private section of Class and registers a prefinalization callback void Class::PreFinalizer(). The callback is invoked on garbage collection after the collector has found an object to be dead.

Callback properties:

• The callback is invoked before a possible destructor for the corresponding object.
• The callback may access the whole object graph, irrespective of whether objects are considered dead or alive.
• The callback is invoked on the same thread as the object was created on.

Example:

class WithPrefinalizer : public GarbageCollected<WithPrefinalizer> {
  CPPGC_USING_PRE_FINALIZER(WithPrefinalizer, Dispose);
 
 public:
  void Trace(Visitor*) const {}
  void Dispose() { prefinalizer_called = true; }
  ~WithPrefinalizer() {
    // prefinalizer_called == true
  }
 private:
  bool prefinalizer_called = false;
};
