Destroys the resources held by this object. Destroying an object allows for deterministic release of resources, instead of relying on the garbage collector to destroy this object.

Once an object is destroyed, it should not be used; calling any function other than isDestroyed will result in a DeveloperError exception. Therefore, assign the return value (undefined) to the object as done in the example.
Throws:
  • DeveloperError : This object was destroyed, i.e., destroy() was called.
Sets the credit display to the end of frame state, displaying credits from the last frame in the credit container.
