Destructor and Constructor

Question

A Destructor is defined in a class that is developed by using the C# programming language, but the destructor is never executed. Why did this happen?

Answer 1

Runtime environment automatically calls the destructor of a class to free the resources which are occupied by the variables and the methods of an object. Though, in C#, programmers could not control the timing for invoking destructors, as Garbage Collector is only responsible in order to release the resources which are in use by an object. Garbage Collector automatically gets informed about the unreferenced objects from .NET's runtime environment and then it invokes the “Finalize ()” method.

Though, it is not preferable to force the Garbage Collector to perform the process of the garbage collection and recover all the inaccessible memory, programmers can practise the Collect () method of Garbage Collector class to forcefully execute the Garbage Collector.
