DeriveBytes.Dispose Method

Definition

Namespace:

System.Security.Cryptography

Assembly:

System.Security.Cryptography.dll

When overridden in a derived class, releases all resources used by the current instance of the DeriveBytes class.

Overloads

Dispose()	When overridden in a derived class, releases all resources used by the current instance of the DeriveBytes class.
Dispose(Boolean)	When overridden in a derived class, releases the unmanaged resources used by the DeriveBytes class and optionally releases the managed resources.

Dispose()

Source:

DeriveBytes.cs

When overridden in a derived class, releases all resources used by the current instance of the DeriveBytes class.

public:
 virtual void Dispose();

public void Dispose ();

abstract member Dispose : unit -> unit
override this.Dispose : unit -> unit

Public Sub Dispose ()

Implements

Dispose()

Remarks

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

For more information, see Cleaning Up Unmanaged Resources and Implementing a Dispose Method.

Note

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

Dispose(Boolean)

Source:

DeriveBytes.cs

When overridden in a derived class, releases the unmanaged resources used by the DeriveBytes class and optionally releases the managed resources.

protected:
 virtual void Dispose(bool disposing);

protected virtual void Dispose (bool disposing);

abstract member Dispose : bool -> unit
override this.Dispose : bool -> unit

Protected Overridable Sub Dispose (disposing As Boolean)

Parameters

disposing

Boolean

true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources.

Remarks

This method is called by the public Dispose() method and the Finalize() method, if it has been overridden. Dispose() invokes this method with the disposing parameter set to true. Finalize invokes this method with disposing set to false.

When the disposing parameter is true, this method releases all resources held by any managed objects that this DeriveBytes references. This method invokes the Dispose() method of each referenced object.

Notes to Inheritors

Dispose can be called multiple times by other objects. When overriding Dispose(Boolean), be careful not to reference objects that have been previously disposed in an earlier call to Dispose. For more information about how to implement Dispose(Boolean), see Implementing a Dispose Method.
