Dispose of Image

[Reema_n]

Hello.

I am developing a program using the C# WPF with BitmapImage (System.Windows.Media.Imaging.BitmapImage) as well as Image (System.Windows.Controls.Image). The problem is that when I try to release that images. All of the images are being contained WrapPanel and whenever I am deleting then form the panel the memory isn't free. Please help me i need it to solve urgently because my project has been stopped in midways.

Thanks in advance

I think that you are not using outstanding rooted references for the BitmapImage objects. The CLR when need it, will automatically reclaim the memory. You do not have to insert a destructor to know whether the images are being freed. A method of tracking lifetime which is live on maintaining weak references for the objects. I hope this much will help you to resolve you issue.

Thanks

Calling the Dispose method allows the resources used by this Image to be reallocated for other purposes.Call Dispose when you are finished using the Image. The Dispose method leaves the Image in an unusable state. After calling Dispose, you must release all references to the Image so the garbage collector can reclaim the memory that the Image was occupying. For more information, see Cleaning Up Unmanaged Resources and Implementing a Dispose Method.

Thank you

These are the method to initialize the same. These method will provide the functionality to solve your issue. So use this to solve your problem.

Visual Basic (Declaration)
