Would it be workable to change freenet.client.cli.Main to use the exit status to indicate the success or failure of the operation?
For example, when I use this class to fetch or insert documents into freenet, I sometimes do it from a script. When a 'get' fails, without parsing the error messages coming back (which is nasty and probably error prone as they may change in the future) I have no way of telling whether the query failed with a DNF (i.e. don't bother trying again) or an RNF. (i.e. I might want to try again). It would be very nice to be able to distinguish the status of the query by the exit code. I looked into the way it's written, and there doesn't seem to be a really straightforward way of doing this. (1) Is this something that someone more familiar with the code than me can do quickly? (2) If I can put together a patch to do this, would it be accepted? -- David Allen http://opop.nols.com/ ---------------------------------------- Hard work may not kill you, but why take chances? _______________________________________________ devl mailing list devl at freenetproject.org http://hawk.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/devl
