Object.Finalize Method

Definition

Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before it is reclaimed by garbage collection.

!Object ()
~Object ();
abstract member Finalize : unit -> unit
override this.Finalize : unit -> unit
Finalize ()

Examples

The following example verifies that the Finalize method is called when an object that overrides Finalize is destroyed. Note that, in a production application, the Finalize method would be overridden to release unmanaged resources held by the object. Also note that the C# example provides a destructor instead of overriding the Finalize method.

using System;
using System.Diagnostics;

public class ExampleClass
{
   Stopwatch sw;

   public ExampleClass()
   {
      sw = Stopwatch.StartNew();
      Console.WriteLine("Instantiated object");
   }

   public void ShowDuration()
   {
      Console.WriteLine("This instance of {0} has been in existence for {1}",
                        this, sw.Elapsed);
   }

   ~ExampleClass()
   {
      Console.WriteLine("Finalizing object");
      sw.Stop();
      Console.WriteLine("This instance of {0} has been in existence for {1}",
                        this, sw.Elapsed);
   }
}

For an additional example that overrides the Finalize method, see the GC.SuppressFinalize method.
