using Statment

[RKNET]

Please let me know on the usage of 'Using' keyword when used in statments.
Eg;
using (System.IO.StreamWriter varFile = new
System.IO.StreamWriter("fileName")).
Thanks,
RKNET

Hi Rknet,

The using statement is a convenient way to ensure that the Dispose() method
of IDisposable
(http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...isposable.aspx) objects
are called properly. The object in the parameter must be IDisposable.
Without this statement, you would need to implement a try/finally statement
where you called Close() or Dispose in the finally block. I personally like
the statement and use it whenever I can.
