[vtkusers] vtkDelete in java gc finalization

[TARRAGO Xavier 103783]

  Hello,
  I use vtk from java bindings and I am very surprised about the way garbaging is handled. vtkDelete is called from finalize. But finalize is runned in a thread that is not the main thread (or eventThread for swing). So I expected some synchronization in the reference counting. But I cannot find any clue of that. Please let me know that I have missed something. If I did not, I expect some ref counting corruption to happend from java finalization.

  Best regards,
