IAssetProvider.Release

Parameters

Description

Releases an asset previously returned by this provider.

Call this when the asset is no longer needed so the provider can unload it. Providers that hand back assets they do not own, such as ReferencedAssetProvider, implement this as a no-op.

<para>Release an asset once it is no longer needed.</para>
