Why Dispose is not called even with using-statemen

问题:

I have this console application (.NET Framework 4.5.2):

class Program
{
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
        using (var result = new Result())
        {
            result.Test();
        }
    }
}

public class Result : IDisposable
{
    public void Test()
    {
        int a = 1;
        int b = 1 / (a - 1);
    }

    public void Dispose()
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Dispose");
    }
}

Why Dispose method is not called? A breakpoint is not hit in Dispose after the DivideByZero-exception and there is no output on the console (because the app exits).

As per MS Docs: try-finally (C# Reference)

Within a handled exception, the associated finally block is guaranteed to be run. However, if the exception is unhandled, execution of the finally block is dependent on how the exception unwind operation is triggered. That, in turn, is dependent on how your computer is set up.

As you are not catching the DivideByZero exception and let it be unhandled, on your machine and setup it must be bringing down the application before any other line of code is run and therefore not running the finally block.

As @Evk has pointed out in below comment, if I run it without attaching debugger, it unwinds the exceptions correctly and executes the finally block. Learn something new everyday.

As per Eric Lippert's answer to Finally Block Not Running?

Think about how awful that situation is: something unexpected has happened that no one ever wrote code to handle. Is the right thing to do in that situation to run even more code, that was probably also not built to handle this situation? Possibly not. Often the right thing to do here is to not attempt to run the finally blocks because doing so will make a bad situation even worse. You already know the process is going down; put it out of its misery immediately.

In a scenario where an unhandled exception is going to take down the process, anything can happen. It is implementation-defined what happens in this case: whether the error is reported to Windows error reporting, whether a debugger starts up, and so on. The CLR is perfectly within its rights to attempt to run finally blocks, and is also perfectly within its rights to fail fast. In this scenario all bets are off; different implementations can choose to do different things.
