In ASP.NET, when the handler you provide to HttpContext.AcceptWebSocketRequest gets a AspNetWebSocketContext, should you dispose the context's WebSocket when you are done with it? Or does the web socket get disposed automatically, perhaps after you call WebSocket.CloseAsync?
You should not dispose the web socket. In fact you cannot. AspNetWebSocket.Dispose always throws a NotSupportedException. The summary and exception sections of the MSDN documentation are incorrect. Fortunately, the remarks section is helpful:
ASP.NET automatically calls the Dispose method on a AspNetWebSocket object to release any resources that remain after your code has finished executing.
