A cursory look suggests that
org-export-format-source-code-or-example takes caption as an arg. This
is used only if htmlize or org-export-latex-listings is configured by
the user - Both of these are not part of factory settings and wouldn't
work out of the box. (Seems like the situation could be improved)
ASCII export always exports a caption without fail.
So if I export
* Source Block
** Emacs Lisp Block
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+CAPTION: HelloWorldCaption
#+srcname: HelloWorldSrcName
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun helloworld ()
""
(message "hello world"))
#+end_src
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I get something like
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
1 Source Block
---------------
1.1 Emacs Lisp Block
=====================
(defun helloworld ()
""
(message "hello world"))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
meaning that captions are not possibly passed into
org-export-format-source-code-or-example.
A cursory look at org-export-attach-captions-and-attributes where
('org-caption text property is added) suggests that captions are not
getting associated with the src blocks.
In summary, there seems to be a clear intent to attach a caption to
example or source blocks but somehow things are turning out otherwise.
