Question

for example

  using (Stream ftpStream = ftpResponse.GetResponseStream())       // a             
  using (FileStream localFileStream = (new FileInfo(localFilePath)).Create()) // b
  {
                 ........do something
  }

will the two statement a and b executed in the order i put?
and displose in the same order as well??

Thanks

Answer 1

They will execute in textual order, and be disposed in reverse order – so localFileSream will be disposed first, then ftpStream.

Basically your code is equivalent to:

using (Stream ftpStream = ...)
{
    using (FileStream localFileStream = ...)
    {
        // localFileStream will be disposed when leaving this block
    }
    // ftpStream will be disposed when leaving this block
}

It goes further than that though. Your code is also equivalent (leaving aside the different type of localFileStream) to this:

using (Stream ftpStream = ..., localFileStream = ...)
{
    ...
}
