What is the Difference B/W Finalize() and Dispose() in .Net?..

Answer / sushma

A Dispose() method is explicit, meaning you code Dispose()
up and explicitly call it in your application or system
code. A Finalize() method is implicit, meaning you code
Finalize() up but never actually call it — Finalize() is
called behind the scenes by the .NET GC mechanism.

The GC call the Finalize() function automatically to destroy
the object called implicit destroy. when you want to destroy
a objects that you think no longer need and free it from
memory, then we will use the dispose function. For better
performance we will use the dispose function explicitly.
