Subject: class level Exception handling

Hi

Could anyone teach me about the following?

1. in a File.open do ... end block, if I call break or return to exit
the block, will the file be closed?

2. Is there a way to write a class-level exception handler? See the
following:

class A
     def method 1
          begin
             ...
          rescue
          end
     end
     def method 2
          begin
             ...
          rescue
          end
     end
end

in the above code, I do a lot of TCP Socket related work in method1
method2 etc. I would like to return false for all these methods if
there's any error, can I do better than use a begin/rescue/end for every
of them?
