You're probably not missing anything - your code shouldn't break if the GC isn't called in specific intervals or at a specific time, since stuff like this isn't defined. So, using a "close" method seems to be the best way to handle this. I don't know of any "extension magic" regarding your problem either. -- Regards, Tilman
