Releases the unmanaged resources used by the TextReader and optionally releases the managed resources.
Namespace: System.IO
Assembly: mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)
Syntax
'Declaration
Protected Overridable Sub Dispose ( _
disposing As Boolean _
)
protected virtual void Dispose(
bool disposing
)
Parameters
- disposing
Type: System.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. By default, this method specifies the disposing parameter as true. Finalize specifies the disposing parameter as false.
When the disposing parameter is true, this method releases all resources held by any managed objects that this TextReader 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 this method, be careful not to reference objects that have been previously disposed of in an earlier call to Dispose.
