How do you handle tearing down containers and disposal ordering?
Updated Apr 28, 2026
Short answer
When an application shuts down, the DI container must dispose of all Singletons. The order of disposal matters to prevent crashes during shutdown.
Deep explanation
Modern containers dispose of objects in the reverse order of their creation. If Service A depends on Service B, Service B was created first. Therefore, Service A will be disposed first, ensuring Service A can safely use Service B during its own disposal logic.
