CsharpServer Side ProgrammingProgramming

In this post, we will understand the difference between the methods ‘dispose’, and ‘finalize’ in C#.

Dispose

  • This method is defined in the IDisposable interface.

  • It has to be invoked by the user.

  • Whenever it is invoked, it helps free the unmanaged resources.

  • It can be implemented whenever a close() method is present.

  • It is declared as public method.

  • It is quick, and instantly disposes an object.

  • Since it performs instantaneously, it doesn’t affect performance.

Finalize

  • It is a method that is defined in the java.lang.object class.

  • It is invoked by the garbage collector.

  • It helps free the unmanaged resources just before the object is destroyed.

  • It is implemented to manage the unmanaged resources.

  • It is declared as private.

  • It is slower in comparison to the ‘dispose’ method.

  • Since it is slow, it affects the performance of the websites or applications.
