Do I need to Dispose a SemaphoreSlim

Question

According to the documentation:

\"a SemaphoreSlim doesn\'t use a Windows kernel semaphore\".

Are there any special

Answer 1

You should always call Dispose() on any class implementing IDisposable (or put it inside a using statement) and not base your decision on its internal implementation. The class author already made that decision for you by implementing the IDisposable interface.
