Re[2]: jshell (tests?) leaking files in /tmp

[Andrei Eremeev]

 According to source code of JShell, a new temp file is created in ExternalEditor when a code snippet is modified.

jdk.internal.jshell.tool.ExternalEditor.java:
method setupWatch:
    this.dir = Files.createTempDirectory("jshelltemp");
    this.tmpfile = Files.createTempFile(dir, null, ".edit");

The created file is not removed.

I reproduced the problem with vim:
int h = 10;
/set editor vim
/edit h

A file is created in tmp if /edit is executed.

Best regards,
Andrei Eremeev
