Once you call child.close() the exit and signal status will be stored in
.exitstatus and .signalstatus, for a normal exit of the program
.exitstatus will store the return code from SCP as per [1] [2] [3] and
.signalstatus will be None. If SCP was terminated with a signal then
.exitstatus will be None and .signalstatus will contain the signal
value. Info found in the docs [4].
data = child.read()
child.close()
if child.exitstatus and child.exitstatus == 0:
success = True
else:
success = False
Won't that if statement always evaluate to false?
If exitstatus is 0 the first part of the and will be false and so the
entire and expression is false.
If exitstatus is not 0 then the second part of the and will be false and
again the and result will be false.
Did you mean to use exitstatus for both tests?
Or am I missing something subtle here?
