There really is no 'Explicit' deletion of managed objects in .net like there are in other languages such as c++. You will have to always wait for th GC to do it stuff. obj.Dispose is just a clean up method really designed for releasing unmanged resources like handles. The Dispose Pattern discusses disposing of objects
Keep your eyes open, you might spot alternatives.

There is no way to "delete" an object in .NET like you do in C or C++. The closest you can get is to call the
Disposemethod if it's available (or the appropriate equivalent since some classes have aClosemethod that actualy does the same work asDispose) and wait for the GC to delete it.
