Don't confuse a reference to an object with the object itself. The port variable may go out of scope, but that has nothing to do with the underlying object, which will persist as long as anything has a reference to it. You'll need to use a heap profiler to find out who is hanging on to references to your objects. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
