Simplified Disposal and Compressed Streams
Explore how to simplify resource management in C# by using the using statement to automatically dispose objects. Understand how to implement GZip and Brotli compression algorithms to reduce XML file sizes and improve performance. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to apply these techniques for better memory and data management in your applications.
We'll cover the following...
We can simplify the code that needs to check for a null object and then call its Dispose method by using the using statement. Generally, we would recommend using using rather than manually calling Dispose is recommended unless we need greater control.
The using keyword
Confusingly, there are two uses for the using keyword:
Importing a namespace.
