I agree Stephen.

But shouldn't the garbage collector cleanup when the application is
completed ?

I thought that when the app is completed, the garbage collector would clean
up the the instantiated class1, hence calling the finalize method.

If that isn't the case, how do you arrange for an instantiated class to
close ports it has opend etc, when the application is completed ?

This is puzzling !
