StreamWriter.Dispose(Boolean) Method

Definition

Causes any buffered data to be written to the underlying stream, releases the unmanaged resources used by the StreamWriter, and optionally the managed resources.

protected:
 override void Dispose(bool disposing);
protected override void Dispose (bool disposing);
override this.Dispose : bool -> unit
Protected Overrides Sub Dispose (disposing As Boolean)

Parameters

disposing
Boolean

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

Exceptions

The current encoding does not support displaying half of a Unicode surrogate pair.

Remarks

When the disposing parameter is true, this method releases all resources held by any managed objects that this StreamWriter 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 Dispose, be careful not to reference objects that have been previously disposed in an earlier call to Dispose.

This method calls the dispose method of the base class, Dispose(Boolean).
