Garbage collector and real resources

[AlexBurton]

Thanks for your reply Boris

It appears that I have miscommunicated my problem. I was not intending to say that the scope keyword was not working as documented.

This line of my original post:

"The second instance of FileWriter fails because the first is still around even though the scope keyword is used."

Should have read :

"The second instance of FileWriter fails because the FileStream that was part of the first has not been destroyed."
