Crash -> no finalize

Hello,

I noticed that when there's a crash in my programs,
the finalize methods of my objects are not called
(the memory is freed, but some things are not done,
like deleting files or tables).

Of course, I should handle all the exceptions,
but in the case I forget some of them,
is there any way to make sure the finalize
methods are always called ?

Thanks !

Myname,

What do you call the finalize methods?
Are you sure your problem is about Visual Basic Net?

No, you cannot, because the process can be terminated using the task manager
immediately. What you can do is check data integrity upon startup.
