Dispose Method
[This documentation is for preview only, and is subject to change in later releases. Blank topics are included as placeholders.]
Releases all resources used by the TextWriter object.
Namespace: System.IO
Assembly: System.IO (in System.IO.dll)

Remarks
Call Dispose when you are finished using the TextWriter. The Dispose method leaves the TextWriter in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the TextWriter so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the TextWriter was occupying.
Note Always call Dispose before you release your last reference to the TextWriter. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the TextWriter object's Finalize method.
