ReleaseComObject() and Dispose pattern association

[sharmadeep1980]

Hi All,


Could anybody help me out in identifying the association between the
.NET's ReleaseComObject() method and the Dispose Pattern? Are they are
similar things and serves the same purpose. Are they substitute of each
other?


This issue has become really hot for our project. Itwill be really
great if the xpert people can provide their corresponding usage for
real world applications. Differences/ Similarties between them and what
exactly they serves?


Please share your expertise and provide me some good database of
knowledge.


Thanks in advance.
