What's the proper way to exit with a specific exit code?
I found a bunch of old threads discussing this, making sure
destructors run and the runtime terminates properly, all of
which seemingly concluding that it's sad that there isn't a
way to do this easily, but hopefully things have changed in
the last 5-10 years and I'm just missing the obvious solution.
The proper way is:
int main()
{
return 42;
}
I highly recommend against trying to terminate the application
using `exit` or any other way. Just let the control flow return
back to the `main` function.
I'm facing this problem to exit early from a multi threaded
program for mem profiling purpose:

So what the simplest and reliable way to terminate all threads
and exit to os?
I even tried core.stdc.stdlib.exit(-1), it does not work.
