There are a few ways, the simplest is in the On_Connect procedure use Connection.Hold at the end, if the connection is lost the semaphore will release and you can add clean up code there before anything finalizes on its own.

Remember Tutorial 2 is using a "Singleton" model, one time run. Good for tools and single runs from the command line, etc.

If you leave the page it will always close the connection on a singleton permanently. It should close the application as well. I'll double check to make sure that is the case.

You should consider basing off of one of the later multi_connect tutorials if you think more than one connection will exists or running on the internet. See the snake demo for a full example.
