Remarks

Call IDisposable.Dispose when you are finished using the RegistrationAttribute.Key. The assetId:///Dispose?qualifyHint=False&autoUpgrade=True method leaves the RegistrationAttribute.Key in an unusable state. After calling assetId:///Dispose?qualifyHint=False&autoUpgrade=True, you must release all references to the RegistrationAttribute.Key so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the RegistrationAttribute.Key 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 RegistrationAttribute.Key. Otherwise, the resources it is using will not be freed until the garbage collector calls the RegistrationAttribute.Key object's Finalize method.
