in reply to Closing a filehandle in ":unix" layer doesn't work on Win32

A couple of suggestions:

  1. Throw some $^E around in your error messages.
  2. Try ditching IO::File.
Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

    $^E just says that I try to delete a file which is still open. Replacing IO::File by the standard functions doesn't change anything, which is not really surprising, as IO::File is just an OO wrapper around the file functions.
