While working on documenting the gogo shell better
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5595) I used the current
felix framework distro and tested a lot of the commands.
When I tried the log:tail command using -f to follow changes I noticed a
problematic behaviour. The tail -f command relies on the user pressing
Ctrl-C to interrupt the tail and go back to the shell. In Apache Karaf
this works like expected.
In the felix framework distro pressing Ctrl-C always exists the
framework. So it is impossible to stop a tail -f once you started it.
I opened an issue for this
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FELIX-5597) as I think it would
be better to have Ctrl-C behave like in karaf.
I discussed this with Guillaume Nodet on irc and he generally agrees but
he asked me to bring this up on the list as the current behaviour might
be desired.
So what do you think? Should we try to change the behaviour or is it
good and expected that Ctrl-C ends the framework? In the latter case we
would need to have a different solution for ending a tail -f.
