Re: Exitcode is 0 when killing a cygwin initiated process via taskmanager

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 hoÃe script.

It was not killed in the proper cygwin way.

stdout of the program (rsync) and only if I got the right footer of
rsync I rely on exitcode 0.

That is insane.

your opinion.

For me, it is simple: if you want a Unix like behavior use cygwin kill.

Otherwise propose a patch...

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
