Free .NET objects from VB6 code

Question

On .NET Rocks! Show 561 , Carl and Richard talked about the release of unmanaged objects created in managed code. If you need to release a COM object created in .NET managed code, you must call System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshall.ReleaseComObject. Is there something similar that you should do (or should do) when releasing .NET objects from COM code, or is it enough to rely on the garbage collector to release objects?

Answer 1

As long as you control the COM counter Callable Wrapper , like any other COM object ( set netObj = Nothing) COM and .NET will take care of everything else.

Answer 2

, VB6, DotNet, . :.

class SomeEventClass
{
    public event EventHandler SomeEvent;

    public void DoSomething()
    {
        var someEvent = SomeEvent;
        if (someEvent != null)
        {
             someEvent(this, new EventHandlerArgs());
        }
    }

    public void ReleaseFromEvents()
    {
         SomeEvent = null;
    }

}
