You cannot delete an managed object in C# . That's why is called MANAGED language. So you don't have to troble yourself with delete (just like in c++).

It is true that you can set it's instance to null. But that is not going to help you that much because you have no control of your GC (Garbage collector) to delete some objects apart from Collect. And this is not what you want because this will delete all your collection from a generation.

So how is it done then ? So : GC searches periodically objects that are not used anymore and it deletes the object with an internal mechanism that should not concern you.

When you set an instance to null you just notify that your object has no referene anymore ant that could help CG to collect it faster !!!
