Does your iopipe handle... Pipes? 😀
BTW: What about SIGPIPE?
In an experimental code I have this
:
fout.rawWrite (buf);
fout.rawWrite ("\n");
writeln ("flushing");
fout.flush (); // (a)
enforce (! fout.eof, "eof on write to child"); // (b)
writeln ("reading from pipe");
:
fout actually is the child's stdin. Sometimes between (a) and (b)
a SIGPIPE occurs and terminates the process (exit code 141). That
prevents the proper handling of eof.
Why isn't SIGPIPE blocked or handled by default?
