Namespace:

System.ComponentModel.Composition

Assembly:

Package:

System.ComponentModel.Composition v9.0.0

Source:

ExportLifetimeContextOfT.cs

Releases all resources used by the current instance of the ExportLifetimeContext<T> class, including its associated export.

public:
 virtual void Dispose();

public void Dispose ();

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

Public Sub Dispose ()

Implements

Dispose()

Remarks

Calling the Dispose method of a ExportLifetimeContext<T> object calls the referenced method to release its associated export.

Call Dispose when you are finished using the ExportLifetimeContext<T>. The Dispose method leaves the ExportLifetimeContext<T> in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the ExportLifetimeContext<T> so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the ExportLifetimeContext<T> 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 ExportLifetimeContext<T>. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the ExportLifetimeContext<T> object's Finalize method.
