//! git-style registered tempfiles that are removed upon typical termination signals. //! //! This crate installs signal handlers the first time its facilities are used. //! These are powered by [`signal-hook`] to get notified when the application is told to shut down //! using signals to assure these are deleted. The deletion is filtered by process id to allow forks to have their own //! set of tempfiles that won't get deleted when the parent process exits. //! //! As typical handlers for `TERMination` are installed on first use and effectively overriding the defaults, we install //! default handlers to restore this behaviour. Whether or not to do that can be controlled using [`force_setup()`]. //! //! # Note //! //! Applications setting their own signal handlers on termination to abort the process probably want to be called after the ones of this crate //! can call [`force_setup()`] before installing their own handlers. //! By default, our signal handlers will emulate the default behaviour and abort the process after cleaning temporary files. //! For full control the application can also prevent our handler to be installed and call it themselves from their own signal handlers. //! //! # Limitations //! //! ## Tempfiles might remain on disk //! //! * Uninterruptible signals are received like `SIGKILL` //! * The application is performing a write operation on the tempfile when a signal arrives, preventing this tempfile to be removed, //! but not others. Any other operation dealing with the tempfile suffers from the same issue. //! //!
