CTRL+C is not working with java on latest cygwin 1.7.15

CTRL+C is not working with java on latest cygwin 1.7.15

[saltnlight5]

Hi there,

Before I upgraded cygwin, I used to be able to press CTRL+C to any java
program, and it will trigger's shutdownhook and exit. But since I upgraded
to latest cygwin, this is no longer working. Has anyone has this problem?

My cygwin version:
$ uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 L328BDS002023US 1.7.15(0.260/5/3) 2012-05-09 10:25 i686 Cygwin

I did see an old post discussed the same thing, but I did not see a
solution.
http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-05/msg00372.html

Can someone in the list help?

Thanks
Zemian

Just tested with this against the latest release version (1.7.15) and
everything works as expected.

Example:
public final class Test {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("This shall hang until CTRL-C is pressed...");
        for (;;);
    }
}

javac -cp . Test.java
java -cp . Test

Press CTRL-C and you are returned to the terminal.

I do have the latest cygwin install. In fact I re-installed just today and
it's still not working.

I printed the full version in my previous email. Was that not the lastest
cygwin version?

[K Stahl]

You are correct in that you have the latest Cygwin release, but have
you tried the test app I have provided?  My assumption is that your
application or its invocation script is causing the issue, not Cygwin
itself.

Re: CTRL+C is not working with java on latest cygwin 1.7.15

[saltnlight5]

Thanks for the reply "K Stahl", but it didn't work for me. I ran the same
Test, then press CTRL+C. But the cygwin terminal did nothing. It did not
stop the java process, and it did not print any thing further. I must
manually terminate the process by going into Windows TaskManager. 

Again, here is my cygwin version:
$ uname -srv
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 1.7.15(0.260/5/3) 2012-05-09 10:25

Am I on the latest version as you said? Did I miss any other config?

Thanks
Zemian

Hmm, what version of Java are you using?  Mine example was tested on Java 1.6.

Hi,

I did compile and ran your Test.java program, and it's not working. I have
java 6

$ java -version
java version "1.6.0_26"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_26-b03)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 20.1-b02, mixed mode)

Seems to me that I've had this issue in the past, but for the life of

weigh in on this topic with some possible suggestions?

Just out of curiosity, what is your exact version of Java?

Post the result of: java --version

Maybe the value of the CYGWIN variable.

@Earnie
What value should I set to CYGWIN that you think it may affect CTRL+C
behavior. I looked at http://cygwin.com/cygwin-ug-net/using-cygwinenv.html
and I don't see any entries that related to CTRL+C.

@K Stahl
I did print you mine full java -version. See my previous email.

Thanks,
Zemian

Hmm, I thought this was an issue in a early release of 1.6.  Seeing as
you have a pretty recent release, I'm still at a loss.

Two people with two differing results also need to compare the
environment settings.  Perhaps it is the difference.

Actually, not so much on the latest version.  Did you try the most recent
Cygwin snapshot?  Version 1.7.15 has some problems with hanging when running
non-Cygwin programs but this was fixed in a later snapshot, perhaps this is
related?

This is still a problem.
CYGWIN_NT-6.1 rwells-w7 1.7.16(0.262/5/3) 2012-07-20 22:55 i686 Cygwin

We have been developing CLI applications for close to 20 years and have 
never had a
problem with the cygwin bash shell failing to pass Ctrl-C signals to the 
application until now.
Luckily the cmd.exe still does.

Let me know if it something that I can help track down.  Glad to help if 
possible.

Re: CTRL+C is not working with java on latest cygwin 1.7.15

[erik56d]

Hi,
being a long-time CygWin fan among Windows users, I was a bit frustrated
when I had to revert to cmd.exe in order to have the ShutDown hook in my
Java program executed on pressing CTRL-C.

So, it seems the problem with CTRL-C still persists?
Or, is there a solution?

I'm running X, i.e. starting Cygwin by

C:\cygwin\bin\rxvt.exe --backspacekey '^h' -g 100x30 -ls -sl 2046 -tn xterm
-title "Local PC" -e /usr/bin/bash --login -i %HOME%/bin/X.sh

where X.sh contains

export DISPLAY=":0.0"
Xwin -clipboard &
sleep 10
wmaker &
wait

and my CygWin version is

$uname -a
CYGWIN_NT-5.1 mypc 1.7.17(0.262/5/3) 2012-10-19 14:39 i686 Cygwin

Regards,
Erik

What java program is that? Can you put a link to it or to any other that 
produces the issue?

Re: CTRL+C is not working with java on latest cygwin 1.7.15

[erik56d]

There is nothing special about the Java program. Might be e.g. 
public class ShutdownHookTester
{
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread()
    {
      public void run() {
        System.out.println("Cleaning up");
      }
    });
    for (int i=0;i<10000;i++)
    {
      System.out.print(".");
      try {
        Thread.sleep(1000);
      } catch (InterruptedException e) {
      }
    }
  }
}

When run under CygWin, pressing CTRL-C will just give you your shell prompt:
$java -cp target/other-utils-1.0.jar com.edb.bds.util.ShutdownHookTester
...
$
Run from cmd.exe, however, the Shutdown Hook is executed as it should be,
yielding:
C:\java -cp . com.edb.bds.util.ShutdownHookTester
....Cleaning up
C:\

saltnlight5, could you try a fresh install of cygwin just to test?

Re: CTRL+C is not working with java on latest cygwin 1.7.15

[saltnlight5]

Okay, I finally found out what's going on.

I used to have an old cygwin installed (not even sure what version) that
only has "C:\Cygwin\Cygwin.bat" to start an terminal. This batch file open a
terminal that I can run java.exe, and I used to hit CTRL+C to end it (not
only that, it will also invoke the Java's shutdown hook.)

After I upgraded to cygwin 1.7.15-1 (it will auto upgrade when we run
setup.exe!). The above behavior no longer works!

It turns out the new cygwin 1.7.15-1 automatically comes with Mintty
terminal now, and will default to create a Shortcut to this on desktop. Well
I still have a shortcut to "C:\Cygwin\Cygwin.bat". What I discover is that
Java will no longer work with terminal that opens with
"C:\Cygwin\Cygwin.bat"! But it DOES work with the Mintty terminal! 

It's all great for me, because I kind of like Mintty terminal. It's kindda
funny because for years I would love to use Mintty, but only to stop because
CTRL+C wont' work there. Now we have reverse!

However, I have to point out also that although I can hit CTRL+C in mintty
to kill a java.exe process, but it DOES NOT invoke the Java's shutdown hook
process! Which is shame, because now I can't test my shutdown procedure
code.

I hope cygwin team can look at this further and provide a good solution,
even for the Java folks like myself. I can only cope with Windows because of
cygwin exists, so kudo to all the cygwin team and their hard work!

Hope also this post will help other Java developers out there.

Cheers,
Zemian
