Category: MSYS Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Peter Rosin (pekberg) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Problem with the kill builtin in MSYS bash Initial Comment: Hi! I found an automake test that didn't behave properly (cont5.test). It had a success rate of about 50% for me on MSYS. I have reduced it to the attached simple test case, which fails much more often than the original code. I.e. start a process in the background, check if it is alive with kill -0 (which it should be), and report failure if it isn't. But it appears that kill fails if it is executed too soon after the new process was created... Now, I know that I'm not personally up to date, but someone else stated that it also happens with up to date software. $ sh --version GNU bash, version 3.1.0(1)-release (i686-pc-msys) Copyright (C) 2005 Free Software Foundation, Inc. $ uname -a MINGW32_NT-5.1 PEDA-PC 1.0.11(0.46/3/2) 2009-07-11 17:46 i686 Msys ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=102435&aid=3042292&group_id=2435 |
