Java, executing a method when object's scope ends

Question

I\'ve an object with a certain state. The object is passed around and it\'s state is temporarly altered. Something like:

public void doSomething(MyObject obj) {
         


        

Answer 1

As an additional note, don't be tempted to use the Object.finalize() method, which runs when an object is GC'd, as you have no control over when the object is collected.
