IAsyncDisposableDisposeAsync Method
Performs application-defined tasks associated with freeing, releasing, or resetting unmanaged resources.

Namespace: Rackspace.Threading
Assembly: Rackspace.Threading (in Rackspace.Threading.dll) Version: 1.1.0.0
Syntax
Copy
Task DisposeAsync()

Return Value

Type: Task
A Task representing the asynchronous operation.
Remarks
This method should perform the same operation as Dispose, with the following key differences.
  • The DisposeAsync method should never be called from a finalizer.
  • The DisposeAsync method will not be called automatically from a using block, even when that block is located within an method. The Using Overload methods provide support for the IAsyncDisposable interface in a manner resembling the behavior proposed in IAsyncDisposable, using statements, and async/await.
Note Notes to Implementers
To prevent finalization of the object while an asynchronous dispose operation is ongoing, the Task returned by this method should retain a reference to the object until the operation is complete.
