Isn't this overlapping with Chris Lyon's series of posts (also on blogs.msdn.com)?

I took a read over at Chris' blog (http://blogs.msdn.com/clyon) - he has some good information on Dispose(). However, the focus of my posts will be on the C++ DF, I'm only discussing CLR Dispose() as an intro to it.

Chris Lyon also links to some very heady reading from Chris Brumme - Check my list of links to the left for more from *that* Chris.

So in the case of VB.NET which can not call unmanaged code, there will never be a need to have Dispose() method...

Your dispose medthod should use a boolean to tell whether the object is already disposed. We don't want to do the unmanaged cleanup twice and we can just fall through (or perhaps assert) if Dispose is called twice. The boolean is also useful to implement a private CheckDisposed method that Asserts and throws an ObjectDisposedException. This can be called from every public method and property.

A large subject like DF needs a few posts. My generalized plan to lay it out will start by describing the CLR's Dispose pattern, how our DF pattern works, and finally how the two patterns fit together. The CLR's Dispose patterns can be quite confusing
