Automatic deterministic resource release does not exist, short of an AppDomain unload and "using".

Mono and Pnet both try to minimize the number of orphan objects but there simply is no general way (circular dependencies ...) to do so.

Mono tries to finalize "static" objects but isn't deteministic in doing so (at least not obviously so from an application developer's POV).

Pnet doesn't even try to finalize "static" objects and is thus deteministic g.

The problem might be that static class members not garbage collected in ILExecProcessDestroy.

The static members are mot handled at all.

Should we set all static classmembers to null before doing the final garbage collection or is there a better solution?

In the test case, the user declares the class member 's' as static.  When compiled, the runtime doesn't appear to ever call the finalizer nor the Dispose(bool) method of the System.IO.FileStream class, even on application exit.

Declaring the variable local within the Main() method works as expected as noted in the original comments.

Look at the following example:
The program writes 5 bytes, but exits without calling s.Close().
In MS.NET and Mono, you have the 5 bytes on the disk; in portable.net, the file is 0 byte long.
If you declare the instance of FileStream localy inside Main(), it works as expected.

public class StreamTest {
        static System.IO.FileStream s;
        public static void Main(string[] args) {
                byte[] b = new byte[5];
                s = new System.IO.FileStream("streamtest.out", System.IO.FileMode.Create);
                for (byte i=0; i<5; i++) b[i]=(byte)(i+65);
                s.Write(b,0,5);
        }
}
