I have a user control which creates an Excel spread sheet and badly needs
Dispose/Finalize. I've read up on the subject in Balena and I think I
understand what is going on. But the VS generated coded confuses me a bit.
VS generates a Dispose subroutine, but it's not obvious if it is ok to
modify it. In the New subroutine VS makes clear that you can add code to it
and tell you where to add it ("Add any initialization after the
InitializeCompo nent() call"). But there is no such direction in the
generated Dispose subroutine.
VS does not generate a Finalize subroutine. That confuses me. Shouldn't
all controls have a Finalize method. If I code a Finalize method (which I
should, right?) then I should also create a static "disposed"varia ble,
right? That seems like the thing to do but on the other hand VS did not
generate one.
I'll be grateful if you can help me with these areas of confusion.

Well i believe that Francesco is pretty clear in how and when to use
Dispose/Finalize
"the Dispose/Finalize pattern should be used only when your type invokes
unmanaged code that allocates unmanaged resources (including unmanaged
memory)"
and for detailed info see this article ( where he explains a simplified
aproach with some usefull links to detailed information ) http://www.dotnet2themax.com/blogs/f...c3c219c78.aspx

eBob,
One of the goals in Net languages is to manage the finalize for you. One of
the main reasons why it is called "Managed code". (This not for C++ MFC).
I hope this helps,

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
