Decrement a static variable of a class after an object it has been destroyed

Joshua

Hi,

Say I have a class Student which has a static field Count. I need to increment it whenever a new object of Student is created and decrement it whenever any object of Student is destroyed.

I know that increment can be done in the constructor but what about decrement, since there is no destructor.

The Student class has to implement the IDisposable interface

class Student : IDisposable
{
   ....................
   public void Dispose()
   {
          Student.Decrement();
   }
}
