Dispose()

Releases all resources used by the current instance of the System.Threading.SemaphoreSlim class.

Syntax

public void Dispose ()

Remarks

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