RE: [Pnet-developers] Destructors are not being called - bug or usage error?

[Thong (Tum) Nguyen]

I tried the test case and it doesn't work with mono (win32).

The fix for PNET has been committed so PNET should properly finalize objects
created in/near main.  Finalization on exit still needs to be tidied up --
I'm going to overhaul that area of the code when I get around to working on
AppDomains.
