Used/available memory? Where can I read this from?

[Fabio Luis De Paoli]

When I turn on verbosegc, the garbage collector prints out on system.err
how much memory the JVM is using and how much is occupied/available for
objects. Does anybody know where, from which class/method, can I read
those values inside a Java program? I searched the JDK documentation and
couldn't find this. Tks!

Runtime.getRuntime().totalMemory() and Runtime.getRuntime().freeMemory().
