StreamReader/StreamWriter

Hello everyone,


I understand there is no need to call Dispose explicitly when dealing with StreamReader/StreamWriter object instances since GC will take care of it in Finalizer method.

My question is, I want to know the benefits and potential issues of using "using" statement to deal with StreamReader/StreamWriter.


thanks in advance,
George

When using a "using"-block, the underlying file is closed at a set time, not at some time in the future the GC sees fit.
