class Class1
{
     Thread listeningThread;
     Socket listeningSocket;

     this()
     {
         listeningThread = new Thread(&Listen);
         listeningThread.start();
         listeningThread.wait(100);
     }

     int Listen()
     {
         listeningSocket = new Socket(AddressFamily.INET, 
SocketType.STREAM, ProtocolType.TCP);
         writefln("socket created\n");
         return (0);
     }
}

void main()
{
     auto class1 = new Class1();
}

It works with listeningThread.wait(100). I dont understand why it makes 
an error if the application quit without the thread ever running. If the 
thread never run, normaly it woudn't throw a socket error.
