Hi, [roam@straylight ~]$ perl6 -e 'use v6.c; use strict; my $p = run "false"; say $p.exitcode;' 1 [roam@straylight ~]$ perl6 -e 'use v6.c; use strict; my $p = run "false", :out; say $p.exitcode;' 0 [roam@straylight ~]$ perl6 -e 'use v6.c; use strict; my $p = run "false", :out; print $p.out.slurp-rest; say $p.exitcode;' 0 [roam@straylight ~]$
So, uhm, what am I missing? Shouldn't $p.exitcode remain 1 no matter whether
I've invoked run() with or without :out? Should I file a bug?
It doesn't matter whether the program actually produces any output on
the standard output stream:
[roam@straylight ~]$ perl6 -e 'use v6.c; use strict; my $p = run "sh", "-c",
"env LANG=C date; exit 3"; say $p.exitcode;'

3
[roam@straylight ~]$ perl6 -e 'use v6.c; use strict; my $p = run "sh", "-c",
"env LANG=C date; exit 3", :out; say "<<<" ~ $p.out.slurp-rest ~ ">>>"; say
$p.exitcode;'
<<<Wed Feb 3 01:35:35 EET 2016

This happens absolutely reproducibly on all of the following:
This is Rakudo version 2015.12 built on MoarVM version 2015.12
implementing Perl 6.c.
This is Rakudo version 2016.01 built on MoarVM version 2016.01
implementing Perl 6.c.
This is Rakudo version 2016.01.1 built on MoarVM version 2016.01
implementing Perl 6.c.
My system is Debian testing:
Linux straylight 4.3.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.3.3-5 (2016-01-04) x86_64
GNU/Linux
Thanks in advance for any clarifications, including "what the *bleep*,
just read this line of the documentation already!" :)
G'luck,
Peter
