using statement with multiple variables [duplicate]

The accepted way is just to chain the statements:

using (var sr = new StringReader(content))
using (var xtr = new XmlTextReader(sr))
{
    obj = XmlSerializer.Deserialize(xtr) as TModel;
}

Note that the IDE will also support this indentation, i.e. it intentionally won’t try to indent the second using statement.

The following only works for instances of the same type! Thanks for the comments.

This sample code is from MSDN:

using (Font font3 = new Font("Arial", 10.0f), font4 = new Font("Arial", 10.0f))
{
    // Use font3 and font4.
}
