[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-374) couchspawnkillable doesn't work on
windows
couchspawnkillable doesn't work on windows
------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-374
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-374
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: windows
Reporter: Mark Hammond
Attachments: couchspawnkillable_win.c
The shell script 'couchspawnkillable' doesn't work on windows, meaning lots of things are broken in the trunk. It might be possible to bash cygwin/msys etc to work, but I think a better solution for windows is a custom little C app which does the same basic thing.
I've attached the source for such an app and it works for me. It creates a suspended child process with the same handles as us, then echos the 'kill' command, then spawns the real app and terminates. The 'kill command' is a reference to the same couchspawnkillable.exe but with a '--kill' command-line. I've not tried to integrate with a build system, but simple instructions are at the top of the file.
Attaching it here so it doesn't get lost...

Mark Hammond updated COUCHDB-374:
---------------------------------
Attachment: couchspawnkillable_win.c
I noticed that depending on how erlang itself is started, couchspawnkillable may not have a valid stderr, so would fail. This new version only considers failure to duplicate stdin and stdout fatal and ignores failure duplicating stderr.
