How is it possible for the System.ServiceModel.ClientBase abstract class to implement IDisposable Interface if the Dispose() Method declaration is not visible/declared?
If I try to do the same I get an error and can't compile
abstract class ATeste : IDisposable
{
}
'ATeste' does not implement interface member 'System.IDisposable.Dispose()'
I'm using VS 2010 and Framework 4.0.
Check the ClientBase declaration:

I tested again, but this time explicity implementing IDisposable. Now it makes sense
abstract class ATest : IDisposable
{
void IDisposable.Dispose()
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
class Test : ATest
{
}
Now, I can't access the Dispose() method when I instantiate the Test Class:
Test t = new Test();
t.Dispose();
using explicit interface implementation.
IDisposable is visible and can be invoked as
var client = new WCFTestServiceClient(); // assumingWCFTestServiceClient is WCF client proxy that inherits from ClientBase
(client as IDisposable).Dispose();

As pretty much everyone has pointed out, the interface method is explicitly implemented. The source code you are seeing for ClientBase<TChannel> is from Metadata (see Metadata as Source in Visual Studio). Note the lack of implementation for any function or a partial keyword.
Visual Studio will not show explicitly implemented interface members from Metadata (see Stack Overflow question 72686320)
Edit:
An explicitly implemented interface method must be called from the interface directly (this is how it differs from one that was implemented implicitly). The correct way to call it is as follows
using System;
abstract class ATest : IDisposable
{
void IDisposable.Dispose()
{
throw new NotImplementedException();
}
}
class Test : ATest
{
}
class OtherClass
{
public static void Main()
{
Test t = new Test();
((IDisposable)t).Dispose();
}
}
The result is Unhandled Exception: System.NotImplementedException: The requested feature is not implemented.
ClientBase<TChannel> implements IDisposable using explicit interface implementation.
The implementation for this just calls close:
void IDisposable.Dispose()
{
this.Close();
}
