While testing my pp'ed file, I'm seeing that the /tmp/par* directory is filling up with 'stuff', either: /tmp/par-xxx/temp-xxx/... or /tmp/par-xxx/cache-xxx/...
So I made a simple 'hello world' as a test, that does a sleep to allow me to control C it. and If I do... stuff is left behind. What am I doing wrong? I built it with: pp --clean -o hello hello.pl If I control-C it, I get stuff, if I let it terminate, I'm still left with the empty /tmp/par-xxx directory (but eventually I'll get many different par-nnn directories! #!/usr/bin/perl print "sleeping for 5 seconds\n"; sleep 5; print "hello world\n"; [Ultimately, I'm doing this under Cygwin, and my app will be run as a 'windows service' via srvany.exe. I've managed to simplify what needs to be installed, but I still need to use: mintty -e myapp but... when the 'service' is stopped, its srvany that gets signaled and not mintty let alone myapp. But that's another hurdle I have yet to surmount.]
