i am aware of the dispose method to free a resouce that is in use, but ive run into trouble and ive no idea how to dispose of an image because ive assigned it using the "new" keyword
While i < directorylist.Count
Dim imagePath As String = directorylist(i) + "\folder.jpg"
' ResizeImage(directorylist(i) + "\", imageName, 50)
Try
[code].....
i know that when i assign an image to a picturebox i can feel up the resource using picturebox1.dispose()here im using "new" so i dont know what to dispose of??
I am having problems disposing of a image thats stored in a 'DataGridViewImageColumn' . When i try and delete the image the 1st one works then the 2nd time its used i get a 'System.IO.IOException: The process cannot access the file 'x' because it is being used by another process'. How do i solve this problem? i am disposing of the image before i try and delete it but yet its still not working:
PS - I have searched the forums / google for a suitable answer and cant find one
how do you correctly dispose a shape in vb.net ie when you draw a rectangle using the pen function how do I depose it so that it will disappear from the form, for some reason once its drawn if I draw a new shape it keeps the previous one and just overlays the new one and I use shape.dispose, and pen.dispose?
From code analysis (Visual studio), I got this warning:
[Code]...
The warning disappear but then the literal control isn't anymore being displayed on the page... EDIT Note that the code come from a Microsoft web page: [URL]
I have an app that loads a jpg into a picyure box, then updates exif data in exifworks classThe problem is that when I save the image(from image used for picture box) or class (to save exif data) then try to delete, sometimes I get success, others it won't allow delet I have gone to the trouble of using gc.collect, do events, put the delete in a timer & wait for the delete before continuing & still get the problem
I am using a PictureBox to display images. I have SizeMode set to StretchImage. While this does indeed show the whole image, it is of coure stretched. Is there a way to prepare the image to be displayed so it will fit correctly in the PictureBox? I just want it displayed without distortion and within the box.
I am looking for a code snippet which opens a image, creates a clone of this bitmap in memory disposes this opened image so that all handles are closed.
Usually we can open a bitmap using this[code...]
the following code however keeps the Image File locked until the application is running, any suggestions how to dispose it properly. (So that no handle is left open )
Things i already tried: use dispose method of bitmap <= doesnt work (need to write implementation) Using Block also doesnt work.
i am making an application that grabs an image from a folder, sets it to a picture box, then has the option to delete the folder... when i click the delete folder button i get the error:
I have a program, and there is a timer to run it every 15 minutes. Every time it run, it will create a new exe / thread, (I monitor this thru an external software called TCPView). With the thread growing, it may slow down the performance, is there a way to dispose the thread before a new one is created?

I am having fun working with System.Threading.Tasks. Many of the code samples I see, however, look something like so:
Dim lcTask = Task.Factory.StartNew(Sub() DoSomeWork()) Dim lcTaskLong = Task.Factory.StartNew(Sub() DoSomeWork(), TaskCreationOptions.LongRunning) Task.WaitAll(lcTask, lcTaskLong)
That's the extent of the sample.Tasks implement IDisposable, so obviously I'm supposed to dispose of them, but what if I just want to "Fire and Forget"?If I don't dispose, will I leak threads/handles/memory/karma?Am I using tasks "wrong"? (Should just use a delegate and leave tasks alone?)
Can I dispose in a "ContinueWith()"? (That seems like playing Russian Roulette.)[URL]..
When is it appropriate to apply the dispose method to controls?For example in a form that has five group boxes, once the first group box is used to gather user entries and is no longer needed, is it worth it to apply the dispose method to the first group box? Is it needed for local variables, for example a StringBuilder used within a private function which is only used while the function is executing?
I attempting to dispose / close a startup form from a sub. Basically, I using the filesystemwatcher to watch for file creation, if the file is created, run some code and close the form.how to pass in some reference form. Using and new to vs2008. A bit of leap from VB 6.0.

Hello, I have a WPF Window that I show with Window.Show(). When I click X the form closes. But it is still in memory and the GC never comes and cleans it up. Also I do not have any refrences/handles to it.
I am using the following code with the window:
Code: Public Class PageWindow Implements System.IDisposable Public UserPressedExit As Boolean
I was experimenting with ways to get rid of some memory leaks within my application the other day when I realized that I know virtually nothing about cleaning up my resources. I did some research, and hoped that just calling the .dispose() would solve all of my problems. We have a table in our database that contains about 65,000 records. Obviously when I fill my dataset from the dataadapter, the memory usage can get pretty high. When I called the dispose method on the dataset, I was surprised to find out that NONE of the memory got released.
Out of pure curiosity, is there a way to free the memory used by a StringBuilder, other than the obvious MyBuilder = New StringBuilder and MyBuilder.Remove(0, Length) (although I guess the later wouldn't free anything, would it?)
hi everyone i created a thumbnail dll for my file type my class dll create thumb for my files type but my class no dispose after create thumbnail this is my project : HPTShellExtThumbnailHandler.rar
On the back of a Windows Form, I get a window DC, create a Graphics object with Graphics.FromHdc, and then dispose the Graphics object before releasing the DC.
Private Declare Function GetWindowDC Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr) As IntPtr Private Declare Function ReleaseDC Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal hwnd As IntPtr, ByVal hdc As IntPtr) As Integer Dim hdc As IntPtr = GetWindowDC(Me.Handle)
[code]....
Why did they do it this way?Should the DC be released before or after Graphics.Dispose?It is possible that the wrong order can cause resource leaks or memory corruption?
When you set a region equal to another, or set it equal to a new instance, do you have to call dispose on the region, or does VB do that? (I guess this isn't necessarily specific to regions)
ex:
'at some point in the code a region is created Dim Rgn as New Region(SomeRect) '....
[Code].....
If Rgn now points to the Rgns(0) clone, what happens to the original memory created by "New Region(SomeRect)"? Do I need to call dispose on Rgn before assigning it to the the Rgns(0) clone?
whats the difference of Me.Close and Me.Dispose...What code does releases memory resources that was used by ".show" command?Im currently creating a program and i just used both of them... is that ok?if it is ok... i know some commands have issues on what should i type first.. so what will i type first?
I Want to know garbage collector works in .net there is something heap and stack funda.so can u please tell me from where i get reference of whole funda of that.and i have another question is that Please see below the code.here i declare one dt and get some data in it.and i don't want that dt after data come in text boxes.so in finally method i do dispose using dt.dispoe().
but after that i write little code to check whether the dt correctly dispose or not.so i check with if condition after disposing.you can check code given below for that condition.as per condition it gives me "Nikunj" Ouput in message box it meanse dt is not disposed after calling the dispose method.so can u please tell me why?And i Want to know about all resources which i used i want to know how can i free it.whether it is variable,object,datatable,datareader etc..... if it is any where with example then please give me link.and if it's from msdn then it's better. i want to know from Microsoft that
I have Overloaded the Dispose method of System.Windows.Forms.Form Class in which I have written some extra code which I need to execute when object of Form Disposes. But when I create the object of Form in 'Using' statement, the 'End Using, statement do not execute my overloaded Dispose method. What should I do?
im loading images into 2 picturebox controls My app works as it should but i need to know when i should dispose of the images or does the garbage collector do it for me?on a user click the images change, i think that my app will become resource hungry and cause the app to bomb out at some point.So do i use Picturebox1.dispose() each time new images are loaded into the pictureboxs to free up the image from memory?
