Default temp directory not deleted on exit

[jeremiehuchet]

The default directory where the postgres binary is extracted is not deleted on exit despite of the following line:

postgresql-embedded/src/main/java/ru/yandex/qatools/embed/postgresql/ext/SubdirTempDir.java

Line 27 in a47e90f

tempDir.deleteOnExit();

File#deleteOnExit() documentation refers to File#delete() and the latter says:

Deletes the file or directory denoted by this abstract pathname. If this pathname denotes a directory, then the directory must be empty in order to be deleted

I expect the temp dir and its content to be deleted on exit. Am I wrong?

Tip How to use your custom version of PostgreSQL acts as a workaround.

Hi @jeremiehuchet . Looks like it is a bug in EmbeddedPostgres class, which is removing data only. Another issue is that by default it uses CachedPostgresArtifactStore which does not remove artifacts intentionally (to optimize the extracted artifacts usage).

I'll think about the proper way of solving this issue. You can now remove the directory manually as a workaround.
