How to rectify it. Thanks. Please look for protected override void Finalize() { Dispose(false); } in the below code. using Microsoft.Win32; using System.Runtime.InteropServices; public class Kiosk : IDisposable { #region "IDisposable" // Implementing IDisposable since it might be possible for // someone to forget to cause the unhook to occur. I didn't really // see any problems with this in testing, but since the SDK says // you should do it, then here's a way to make sure it will happen. public void Dispose() { Dispose(true); GC.SuppressFinalize(this); } protected virtual void Dispose(bool disposing) { if (disposing) { } // Free other state (managed objects). if (m_hookHandle != 0) { UnhookWindowsHookEx(m_hookHandle); m_hookHandle = 0; } if (m_taskManagerValue > -1) { EnableTaskManager(); } } protected override void Finalize() { Dispose(false); } #endregion } c# idisposable destructor finalizer share|improve this question edited Aug 26 '09 at 8:58 Igal Tabachnik 23.1k1261124 asked Aug 26 '09 at 6:18 Anuya 2,65229100187 add a comment| 3 Answers 3 active oldest votes up vote 7 down vote accepted Do what it says. Instead of: protected override void Finalize() { Dispose(false); } Have: ~Kiosk () { Dispose(false); } share|improve this answer answered Aug 26 '09 at 6:20 Noon Silk 39.4k47393 add a comment| up vote 11 down vote Finalize() is a special method that you can't override in code. Use the destructor syntax instead: ~Kiosk() { Dispose(false); } share|improve this answer answered Aug 26 '09 at 6:21 Igal Tabachnik 23.1k1261124 +1 for mentioning a bit about why, rather than just dumping code. –Lucas Jones Aug 26 '09 at 6:23 1 Well, he doesn't actually mention why. The exception itself states the same thing. –Noon Silk Aug 26 '09 at 6:25 add a comment| up vote 1 down vote In C#, the following syntax compiles to exactly what you're trying to accomplish.

as the mechanism for writing finalization code. You must use the destructor syntax in C# to perform cleanup operations. This syntax is convenient because it implicitly calls the Finalize method for an http://sanjaysainitech.blogspot.com/2007/06/error-do-not-override-objectfinalize.html object's base class. This guarantees that Finalize is called for all levels of destructors http://swig-devel.narkive.com/uPtPMwTd/do-not-override-object-finalize from which the current class is derived.Suppose you have written a destructor in your code, like this:~DemoClass(){ // Perform some cleanup operations here.}This code implicitly translates to the following:protected override void Finalize(){ try { // Perform some cleanup operations here. } finally { base.Finalize(); }}So if you have a destructor in your class and your error 1 are also trying to override Finalize function then you wil l get following build error."Type already defines a member called 'Finalize' with the same parameter types."
