> Hello everyone.
> Currently there is no clean way to dispose of an object created with a
> LazyInitializer. Either you call _initializer.get().dispose();_ but if you've
> never used _initializer_ before this will invoke a potentially expensive
> routine just so the object can be immediately disposed.
> Or you cache the result of _initializer.get();_ and then dispose the object
> you have cached. This means the developer has to worry about concurrency
> issues when disposing the object, and looses all the benefits of
> LazyInitializer having a built in cache.
> To fix this I propose that a new variant of LazyInitializer is created, this
> variant will allow you to call a dispose method which will close the
> LazyInitializer object and then it will, if the wrapped object has been
> initialized, run whatever disposal routine is provided.
> I have created a pull request with a potential implementation here:
