Important

When overridden in a derived class, releases the unmanaged resources used by the current instance of the RandomNumberGenerator class.
Overloads
| Dispose() |
When overridden in a derived class, releases all resources used by the current instance of the RandomNumberGenerator class. |
| Dispose(Boolean) |
When overridden in a derived class, releases the unmanaged resources used by the RandomNumberGenerator and optionally releases the managed resources. |

When overridden in a derived class, releases all resources used by the current instance of the RandomNumberGenerator class.

Remarks
Call Dispose when you are finished using the RandomNumberGenerator. The Dispose method leaves the RandomNumberGenerator in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the RandomNumberGenerator so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the RandomNumberGenerator was occupying.
For more information, see Cleaning Up Unmanaged Resources and Implementing a Dispose Method.
Note
Always call Dispose before you release your last reference to the RandomNumberGenerator. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the RandomNumberGenerator object's Finalize method.

- disposing
- Boolean
true to release both managed and unmanaged resources; false to release only unmanaged resources.
Remarks
This method is called by the public Dispose() method and the Finalize() method, if it has been overridden. Dispose() invokes this method with the disposing parameter set to true. Finalize invokes this method with disposing set to false.
When the disposing parameter is true, this method releases all resources held by any managed objects that this RandomNumberGenerator references. This method invokes the Dispose() method of each referenced object.
Notes to Inheritors
Dispose can be called multiple times by other objects. When overriding Dispose(Boolean), be careful not to reference objects that have been previously disposed in an earlier call to Dispose. For more information about how to implement Dispose(Boolean), see Implementing a Dispose Method.
For more information about Dispose and Finalize, see Cleaning Up Unmanaged Resources.
