How to release memory in c#

[BicycleTheif]

How can i release memory allocated by new operator by myself?is there any keyword available to do it? Thanks Nithya..

No, there isn't. Memory is released after it's no longer needed, i.e. every reference to an object instance has been removed, nothing you can do about it. Btw. why would you want to handle memory allocation yourself? mav

You don't need to do anything, when the object has no live references to it, the GC (Garbage Collector) will automatically clean it up. Regards Senthil _____________________________ My Blog | My Articles | WinMacro

Let's see the code. Then the replies can be more to the point. On Disposable objects you can use the [b]using[/b] keyword. Are you trying to solve a real problem (performance, memory?), or is this just latent anal-retentiveness of a recovering c/c++ programmer? ;) Matt Gerrans
