Remarks

The Dispose method is not thread-safe.

Call Dispose when you are finished using the BlockingCollection<T>. The Dispose method leaves the BlockingCollection<T> in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the BlockingCollection<T> so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the BlockingCollection<T> 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 BlockingCollection<T>. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the BlockingCollection<T> object's Finalize method.
