If you ask mpirun to launch an executable that does not exist, it
fails, but returns an exit status of 0.
This makes it difficult to write scripts that invoke mpirun and need
to check for errors.
I'm wondering if a) this is considered a bug and b) whether it might
be fixed in a near term release.
Example:
> orterun -np 2 asdflkj
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
Failed to find the following executable:
Host: build-linux64
Executable: asdflkj
Cannot continue.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--
> echo $?
0
I see this behavior for both 1.2 and 1.1.x.
Thanks for your help.
