StringWriter.Dispose Method (Boolean)

Microsoft Silverlight will reach end of support after October 2021. Learn more.

Releases the unmanaged resources used by the StringWriter and optionally releases the managed resources.

Namespace:  System.IO
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Protected Overrides Sub Dispose ( _
    disposing As Boolean _
)

protected override void Dispose(
    bool disposing
)

Parameters

  • disposing
    Type: System.Boolean
    true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources.

Remarks

When the disposing parameter is true, this method releases all resources held by any managed objects that this StringWriter 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, be careful not to reference objects that have been previously disposed in an earlier call to Dispose.
