Question

c# question - is there a tool to identify where I should/can use a "using" statement to ensure resources are closed? (to avoid memory leaks etc)

Including both the cases that:

a) there are resources not been closed and

b) syntax is using a try-catch-finally and identies this could be changed to a using

Thanks

Answer 1

I'm not sure if it covers case b explicitly, but Gendarme is a fine tool that will tell you when you don't have a using statement around disposable objects.

Answer 2

Don't know if this is the kind of tool that you're looking for, but Code Rush will highlight your code when you have an object from a class that implements IDisposable and you're not diposing it.
