At least for my application in C++ and Java is to shut down threads INSIDE each individual thread.

void endX(){
	endApp = true;	
	snd("clear61", 0);	
	Sleep(200);
	snd("clear62", 0);	
	Sleep(200);
	snd("clear63", 0);	
	Sleep(200);
	snd("clear64", 0);	
	Sleep(200);
	snd("clear", 0);	
	Sleep(2000);
	if(CommPort1.IsOpened()) CommPort1.Close();
	if(CommPort2.IsOpened()) CommPort2.Close();
}	

GUI_APP_MAIN{
	NefbG2().Run();
	endX();
}

And in each thread something like this:

		while(!inF.IsEof()){
		    if(endApp){if(inF) inF.Close(); break;}
    		    if(Thread::IsShutdownThreads() || cF==1){
			if(inF) inF.Close();
	    	        cF=0;
	    	        break;
		    }

Hope this helps as if an app opens a port and it is not closed properly it stays open when the app closes, plus other things happen that IS NOT nice to contend to.

edit: As mentioned try and close the threads inside the thread.
This is when the app exits or even to end a thread while the app is running.
