cygwin v1.3.15 on Windows 2000 Server, COMSPEC is cmd.exe
I searched in the FAQ and list archives and could not find an
answer/solution to my question.
I'm currently supporting a very lame build system that contains bash
script that calls a series of .bat scripts. The .bat scripts do some
minimal error checking and exit with "exit /b 1" on error. Unfortunately,
this exit code doesn't seem to make it to the bash script. If a .bat
file exits with "exit 1", the shell does seem to get the error code.
Unfortunately, this isn't a possible workaround since these .bat files
are also run from DOS shells. I tried using ash as well but got the
same results. Is this a known problem?
Per the web page, I'm including "cygcheck -s -v -r" output at the end
of my message. For security reasons, I've removed hostname and other
host identifying information.
Thanks

Try it without the /b, just "exit 1".
With /b:
$ cat a.bat
exit /b 2
$ cmd /c a.bat ; echo rc=$?
C:\winnt\temp>exit /b 2
rc=0
Without /b:
$ cat b.bat
exit 2
$ cmd /c b.bat ; echo rc=$?
C:\winnt\temp>exit 2
rc=2
$ cmd /ver

Notice that she said she tried it, it works, but is not an option for
her because they need to be invoked from DOS command shells as well, and
she doesn't want the bat files to cause those shells to exit.

Angela is a former valued colleague of mine from Cygnus and Red Hat
days, so I offered some suggestions in private email.
It looks like if she changes the invocation of her .bat files from just
"foo.bat" to "cmd /c call foo.bat" then an "exit /b" in foo.bat will
work correctly.
I'm contemplating making a change to cygwin to cause this to be the
default.
