C#/.Net - Doubt how"Using" Statement is implimented

[tim007]

Hi all,

I have a doubt regarding the "Using" statement

if i write a code like this....

using (sqlDataReader)
{

do something ....

}


do I need to explicitly close the DataReader object or

will it be taken care off as i'm using the "Using" statement, will it close & dispose ?

I would like to know whats the best practice ?

that would be an appropriate syntax.
Anything inside a using statement should implement the IDisposable interface.
so that at the end of the using clause, the object is disposed.

However with your syntax you can still run into problems as you can still access the sqlDataReader as it will be disposed after the using clause.

The method would be to declare the datareader inside the using statement

using Statement (C#)
