In .Net/C# this is done with IDisposable and the using statement which works quite well.

Ex:

  using (var sr = new StreamReader(filename))
  {
     txt = sr.ReadToEnd();
  }

Modern C# version,

    using var sr = new StreamReader(filename);

    txt = sr.ReadToEnd();

And for the "what about forgeting to call using?",

No different from using all those static analisers in C and C++ to keep the code free of memory corruptions and UB issues.
