[Freeswitch-users] recvEvent causes zombies process

I am wanting to code an inbound event program. In order to see why I am getting zombie processes I stripped out all my code and used the minimum skeletcon code to do a test. con = ESL::ESLconnection.new('127.0.0.1', '8021', 'ClueCon')con.events("plain", "CHANNEL_HANGUP_COMPLETE") loop do event = con.recvEvent pid = fork do end Process.detach(pid) end This code does nothing but wait for an incoming event, creates an fork then detach however it still produces a defunct process. I think con.recvEvent is the cause?
