Yes, and works the same with Date::Time etc. So basically, I have a long running process and it flushes and reports on SIGUSR1. And I never figured out how to test to see if it actually flushed old data. And, now we have noticed that it actually isn't flushing old data (oops). So, since I have to revisit this, I figured I'd actually write a proper test case for it. However, I don't know how to shift time around so that it looks legit to everything. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
