RustAutoComplete: Creates 20+ temp files and doesn't delete them.
I noticed all of these temp files (tmp[random chars]) being created beside my source files. They were multiplying pretty fast. I can see it starting when the autocomplete popup is shown, and the more you type, the more it creates. They aren’t being deleted though. If I close Sublime Text (version 3065) they are still there. Disabling ‘RustAutoComplete’ stops them from being created.
Any ideas on how to remedy this? I do like RustAutoComplete. It works fine except for the this one thing.

Specifying the full path to
racerfixes the issue for me.I’m running on linux (specifically Kubuntu 14.04.1), but I figured out the problem. I should’ve paid more attention to the Sublime Text console messages. It couldn’t find the
racerexecutable. Even thoughraceris in my$PATH, I had set the config to{"racer": "racer"}, which I thought would point to my symlink~/.local/bin/racer, but it wasn’t finding it. I gave it a full path to my symlinkedracerexecutable (/home/cj/.local/bin/racer) and it now works and deletes thetmp*files. I don’t see them being created either though, but that could be because it’s too fast.So, no
racermeant it was creating a bunch of temporary files and not deleting them. I haven’t looked into the internal workings of RustAutoComplete to see why that is.It is a pain.
