- disposing
- Boolean
If set to true, the method is invoked directly and disposes managed and unmanaged resources. If set to false, the method is called by the garbage collector finalizer and should only release unmanaged resources.
Remarks
This method releases the resources used by this class.
This method is called by both the Dispose() method and the object finalizer (Finalize()). When invoked by the Dispose() method, the disposing parameter is set to true and any managed object references that this object holds are also disposed or released. When invoked by the object finalizer, on the finalizer thread, the disposing parameter is set to false.
Calling the Dispose() method when the application is finished using this instance ensures that all external resources used by this managed object are released as soon as possible. Once developers have invoked the Dispose() method, the object is no longer useful and developers should no longer make any calls to it.
