I am using Perl on a Solaris Machine, I am getting core dump of my processes in /var/core, when i termintae my program using ctrl+c, Even When i register handler for INT,TERM,KILL signal. I have writtent following in my handler .... 

#################################################################
#
#   Name      :    sigTERMhandler
#   Input     :    None
#   Return    :    None
#
#   Function of subroutine:
#    Handler for SIGTERM
#
#################################################################
sub sigTERMhandler
{

    #
    # if debug is ON,log a debug statement
    if( defined $options{d} || $DEBUG eq "ON" )
    {
        $log->print($filename.":".__LINE__.": Received TERM process ID
+ :: "
                    . $$ . " Shutting Down Gracefully...\n");

    }
