Earlier today I was surprised to notice that some test-is unit tests I
was running from Ant failed, but it still reported BUILD SUCCESSFUL. I
figured I'd forgotten to include failonerror="true" in the java task,
but it was there. So I played around and found that
$ java -cp clojure.jar clojure.main -e "garbage"
java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: garbage in this context
(NO_SOURCE_FILE:0)
at clojure.lang.Compiler.analyze(Compiler.java:4330)
.......etc
$ echo $?
0
Likewise with a script. This seems like a bug. Would it be acceptable
to change clojure.main/main as follows?
Currently it does this:
(try
.... the good stuff ...
(catch Exception e
(.printStackTrace e *err*)))
(flush))
Instead I'd like it to:
(try
.... the good stuff ...
(flush)
(catch Exception e
(flush)
(throw e)))
Basically just let Java do what Java does when an unhandled exception
is thrown (after flushing *out* to keep from confusing people). I know
a lot of what's in clojure.main is meant to be useful for embedding in
larger programs, but it doesn't look to me like the main function is
intended for that.
Thanks.
