I'm not sure what you are talking about.
ARTermination() is always called on exit because ARS.xs implements a
destructor function for ARControlStructPtr objects.
Perl also closes filehandles automatically.
If you have other resources which need cleanup, you can wrap your code
into an "eval" block:
eval {
...
ars_GetListEntry( .... );
die "Error message\n" if $ars_errstr;
...
}
warn $@ if $@;
# do cleanup here
So, in my opinion, in most cases the use of "die" should be just fine.
Best regards,
Thilo
