System.IO.FileStream.Dispose Method

Syntax

protected override void Dispose (bool disposing)

Parameters

true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources.

Exceptions

TypeReason
System.IO.IOExceptionAn I/O error occurred.

Remarks

This method is called by the public System.ComponentModel.Component.Dispose method and the object.Finalize method. System.ComponentModel.Component.Dispose invokes the protected FileStream.Dispose(bool) method with the disposing parameter set to true. object.Finalize invokes FileStream.Dispose(bool) with disposing set to false.

When the disposing parameter is true, this method releases all resources held by any managed objects that this System.IO.FileStream references. This method invokes the System.ComponentModel.Component.Dispose method of each referenced object.
