NAME

Test::TempDir::Handle - A handle for managing a temporary directory root.

SYNOPSIS

    use Test::TempDir::Handle;
    my $h = Test::TempDir::Handle->new( dir => dir("t/tmp") );
    $h->empty;
    # ...
    $h->cleanup; # will delete on success by default

DESCRIPTION

This class manages a temporary directory.

ATTRIBUTES

"dir"
The Path::Class::Dir that is being managed.
"lock"
An optional lock object (File::NFSLock). Just kept around for reference counting.
"cleanup_policy"
One of "success", "always" or "never".
"success" means that "cleanup" deletes only if "test_builder" says the tests have passed.
"test_builder"
The Test::Builder singleton.

METHODS

"empty"
Cleans out the directory but doesn't delete it.
"delete"
Cleans out the directory and removes it.
"cleanup"
Calls "delete" if the "cleanup_policy" dictates to do so.
This is normally called automatically at destruction.
