Does View.removeAllViews() release memory?

Question

I experienced OutOfMemory exception in my code, so I am reviewing the code.

I have a question, does View.removeAllViews() release the memory that were used by the child views that were previously added into this the parent view?

Thanks.

Except if your code has references on the ViewGroup's child views, all ViewGroup's child views should be "garbage collectable".
