I am not sure what you mean by this. I discovered it in my attempt to 
write a M$ and Linux compatible app. Roughly, I have:

Form1 the main form
   It has an instance of a "GlobalSettings" class

At program termination, neither Form1.Dispose(bool)  nor ~GlobalSettings 
is getting called. I was counting on it to make sure that GlobalSettings 
was written to a file. I suppose I will try instead to move the settings 
save to a Closing() event in Form1.
