Remarks

An IDisposable object can hold references to the following types of resources:

The order in which the DisposeManaged and DisposeUnmanaged methods are called when an Disposable object is disposed via the Dispose method is the following:

  1. DisposeManaged
  2. DisposeUnmanaged

When an Disposable object is garbage collected resp. deleted because the reference counter has dropped to zero, it will be disposed automatically. In this case, only the DisposeUnmanaged method will be called.

Public / Attributes

LifecycleState

Returns the lifecycle state of this object.

public virtual property LifecycleState { get }
type LifecycleState
value The lifecycle state.
implements ILifecycleState.LifecycleState

Public / Methods

AcquireTry

Acquires a strong reference to this disposable object.

[OwnerReturn, ThreadSafe]
public method AcquireTry ()
type IDisposable
returns this if a new strong reference has been acquired, null if this object is already being disposed.
implements IDisposable.AcquireTry

Remarks:

The object will not be actually disposed by calls to Dispose when there is at least one strong reference left. Code that calls the AcquireTry method is responsible for calling the Dispose method accordingly.

This method is not intended to be used in performance-critical code. It should only be used to high-level resource management.

Dispose

Releases all resources held by this object if there are no more strong references to it, decrements the reference counter by one otherwise.

[Dispose, OwnerThis, ThreadSafe]
public method Dispose ()
implements IDisposable.Dispose

Remarks:

The Dispose method silently returns if the object has already been disposed.

Protected / Methods

DisposeManaged

Disposes the managed resources held by a concrete subclass. This method will be called at most once per subclass.

protected virtual method DisposeManaged ()

Remarks:

This method will only be called when a disposable object is explicitly destroyed by user code calling the Dispose method. It will not be called when the object is collected as garbage by the system.

Overriding methods must call the DisposeManaged method of their base class. The base call should be the last statement.

The DisposeManaged method is called before the DisposeUnmanaged method.

DisposeUnmanaged

Disposes the unmanaged resources held by a concrete subclass. This method will be called exactly once per subclass.

protected virtual method DisposeUnmanaged ()

Remarks:

Overriding methods must call the DisposeUnmanaged method of their base class. The base call should be the last statement.

The DisposeUnmanaged method is called after the DisposeManaged method.

Logging

Logger

The logger object of this class.

public static readonly field Logger
type ILogger
