I spoke too soon. Failing tests do not terminate the testing.
ksh does not place the exit status of the shell in $? or provide it as an argument
to the trap function. Possibly the status of the 'exit' command is provided instead?
$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/sh
die () {
status=$?
echo >&2 "die status: $status"
exit $status
}
trap 'die' 0
echo "I am dying"
exit 1
###### END TEST SCRIPT ######
linux $ /bin/sh test.sh
I am dying
die status: 1
linux $ echo $?
1
linux $ /usr/bin/ksh test.sh
I am dying
die status: 1
linux $ echo $?
1
IRIX $ /bin/ksh test.sh
I am dying
die status: 0
IRIX $ echo $?
0
SunOS $ /usr/xpg4/bin/sh test.sh
I am dying
die status: 0
SunOS $ echo $?
0
Ah, no, it looks like the status of the command executed immediately before
exit is what the trap has access to in $?. Adding a call to false before exit
in the above script causes the korn scripts to exit with status 1 on IRIX and
SunOS.
#!/bin/sh
die () {
status=$?
echo >&2 "die status: $status"
exit $status
}
trap 'die' 0
echo "I am dying"
false
exit 1
