we can do it by mark and sweep algorithm of gc, on creating objects attach a boolean flag as flase,
let there is a root element which point to every other live child objects, child objects point to all live sub child objects and so on.
1. mark stage :-
when we go out of memory, iterate through all objects present in stack and mark flag as true,

mark(root){
	if(root.flag == flase){
		root.flag = true;
	}
	for(every child){
	 mark(child);
	}
}

2. sweep stage:-
iterate through heap, check if current object flag is true, if true then mark it as false else heap.relase(current object)

if(currentObject.flag == true){
		currentObject.flag = false;
	}else{
		heap.relaase(currentObject);
	}
