Hi all,
I've read through the perldocs and browsed the web for quite a while, but I
can't seem to figure this one out. My small snippet appears similar to the
examples I could find and the docs seem to back me up. I believe I'm using
this correctly, but what happens is the 'bot' (written through PoCo::IRC)
just hangs in the channel.
if ( $sleep ) {
$kernel->delay( cleanup => 5 ); # exit after n seconds
} else {
&cleanup; # exit now if not sleeping
}
The cleanup function isn't doing anything real exciting.
sub cleanup {
$_[KERNEL]->post( magnet => quit => "Bye.");
$_[KERNEL]->post( magnet => unregister => "all" );
}
Pretty simple, but all of this is just a small test for something larger
that I want to write. I didn't want to continue until I was sure I
understood this aspect of it. If I run the 'cleanup' function all by
itself, it works fine and the 'bot' exits. It's only when I try to call it
through the delay.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
