Monitor Grasshopper unloading

It doesn't. Grasshopper never fully unloads as it is not possible to unload an assembly from an AppDomain. In this case, the lifetime of Grasshopper (and all assemblies loaded by GH) is tied to the lifetime of Rhino.exe

Hi David,

Yes this is what I just figured by monitoring the app... so I suppose I will have to trust the garbage collector to properly dispose of the threads I will start.

Thanks for your answer!

You could use the RhinoApp.Closing event if you really need to
