Methods
Forget()
Deletes sensitive information (such as password). This method is mostly used on client (vs. server) to prevent process memory-inspection attack. Its is usually called right after Login() was called. Implementers may consider forcing post-factum GC.Collect() on all generations to make sure that orphaned memory buff with sensitive information, that remains in RAM even after all references are killed, gets compacted; consequently, this method may take considerable time to execute.
Declaration
public virtual void Forget()
