GraphicsAdapter.Dispose Method

Releases all resources used by the GraphicsAdapter class.

Namespace: Microsoft.Xna.Framework.Graphics
Assembly: Microsoft.Xna.Framework (in microsoft.xna.framework.dll)

Syntax

public void Dispose ()

Remarks

Call Dispose when you are finished using the GraphicsAdapter. The Dispose method leaves the GraphicsAdapter in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the GraphicsAdapter so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the GraphicsAdapter was occupying.

Note

Always call Dispose before you release your last reference to the GraphicsAdapter. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the GraphicsAdapter object's Finalize method.
