[Mono-list] Accessing member objects in destructors

[Grundgeiger, Dave]

>From "Overriding the Finalize Method" in the .NET Framework SDK
documentation:

"An object's Finalize method should not call a method on any objects =
other
than that of its base class. This is because the other objects being =
called
could be collected at the same time as the calling object, such as in =
the
case of a common language runtime shutdown."

Hi,
Reading the Mono code i have seen sometimes a class destructor access a
method of a member object:

Socket socket =3D new Socket();
~XXXX
{
	socket.Close ();
}

Is this correct? You can assert the socket object is not freed before =
XXX
object?

Thx, best regards.

G.
