The use case is for a factory interface with both create and release methods, where the instance is a proxy for RPC over a communication channel. After all resolved instances are released I want to free the communication resources, which in this case is a messaging saga. Yeah I definitely agree about the issues of ref counting re the old COM days. I'll try minimise the issues with a sealed implementation. Cheers for the input. Rob
