Coming to them from the perspective "you are doing it wrong and there

I meant from the perspective of expecting the GC to close the file for
you. If you manually run the destructor, such as from using delete, that
wouldn't be a problem.
Or if you... close the file :o). OK, thanks for clarifying. -- Andrei
