My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText and disposing

[kimiraikkonen]

Hi,
Should i call a kind of dispose or close function after using:

My.Computer.FileSystem.WriteAllText

or

My.Computer.FileSystem.ReadAllText

for next usage in order to leave resources empty / buffer flushing.

I read VB.NET's "using...." statement also closes open resources
"automatically" and shortens syntax for calling any close or dispose
method. Is this also valid for "my.computer.filesystem"?

Thanks

No, that's not valid. 'WriteAllText' and 'ReadAllText' will dispose the
resources internally.

resources internally.

Sorry, but your answer is not well detailed. So you mean it is not
needed to use any dispose method for my.computer.filesystem?

I read some examples on the net without any dispose / close methods
and also i couldn't find any close / dispose-related functions under
"my.Computer.FileSystem" presented by intelliSense.

Thanks.

That's what I meant.

ReadAllText and WriteAllText are static methods, so there is no instance to
dispose.
