Examples - Sparkplug Edge Node - Stop the edge node by disposing of it

.NET

// This example shows how to use the IDisposable interface to automatically stop the Sparkplug edge node.
//
// You can use any Sparkplug application, including our SparkplugCmd utility and the SparkplugApplicationConsoleDemo
// program, to subscribe to the edge node data.
