> What do you mean by "canceled" exit code, pretty please?

oh, any exitcode <> 0 would be nice. Sending sigkill on debian gives a 137.

The point is, I rely on having a successfully executed command, if
exitcode is 0. In this case command is terminated, left garbage and
did not do its job and I go on like everything would be fine. How
should error checking care about such a condition / state?

Any ideas? And by the way, is such a condition in pure GNU/Linux
producible? Sigkill is quite brute force exit isn't it?

Thanks

>> Using Taskmanager is brute force as cygwin dll can not act and correctly manage the exitcode


Hi,

thanks, but I do not agree. One element of the script was killed, not
the hoöe script. It should be more robust. What I do now is: Read
stdout of the program (rsync) and only if I got the right footer of
rsync I rely on exitcode 0.

That is insane.

Is it possible to kill the process of a script element in GNU and
having a returncode of 0 and a continuing script? If yes we can't use
returncodes at all anymore in shell scripts?

Thanks lopiuh

Hi all,

I have a script running banana after killing a process (rsync, but
that is unimportant) through Taskmanager (End process in process tab).

It is, that the killed process exits  immediately with exitcode 0 (!)
and the bash script itself continues, which can lead to havoc because
not knowing something was canceled (continuing to mive directories
etc).

Win7, CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64 Gizmo-PC 1.7.33-2(0.280/5/3) 2014-11-13
15:45 i686 Cygwin

simple to reproduce:
START script.sh
#!/usr/bin/bash
less some_file
echo "result: $?" >| erg_file

erg_file contains: result: 0 after killing less through process taskmanager

Any idea how to solve (get the "canceled" exit code? Remember: The
script continues like a normal finish of the command)

Thanks

lopiuh
