Siegfried Goeschl commented on EXEC-34:
---------------------------------------
Well, actually the sample is buggy since the following line is missing
exec.setWatchdog(watchdog)
which injects the newly created 'Process' instance into the watchdog and
without *Process' instance 'watchdog.destroy()' has no effect
> Race condition prevent watchdog working using ExecuteStreamHandler

> Key: EXEC-34
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXEC-34
> Project: Commons Exec
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: Windows Vista 64bit, dual core CPU
> Reporter: Marco Ferrante
> Assignee: Siegfried Goeschl
> Priority: Minor
>
> Consider this test case (in _DefaultExecutorTest_ class):
> {noformat}
> /**
> * Start a async process using a stream handler and terminate it manually
> * before the watchdog timeout occurs
> */
> public void testExecuteAsyncWithStreamHandlerAndUserTermination() throws
> Exception {
> CommandLine cl = new CommandLine(foreverTestScript);
> ExecuteWatchdog watchdog = new ExecuteWatchdog(Integer.MAX_VALUE);
> PumpStreamHandler streamHanlder = new PumpStreamHandler(System.out,
> System.err);
> exec.setStreamHandler(streamHanlder);
> MockExecuteResultHandler handler = new MockExecuteResultHandler();
> exec.execute(cl, handler);
> // DON'T wait for script to run
> //Thread.sleep(2000);
> // teminate it
> watchdog.destroyProcess();
> assertTrue("Watchdog should have killed the
> process",watchdog.killedProcess());
> }
> {noformat}
> It fails (at least in my environment) because when
> _watchdog.destroyProcess()_ is invoked the external process is not bound to
> the watchdog yet.
> Although there are possible several workarounds, but all of them seem to me
> very intrusive in the code. So, I prefer some discussion before preparing and
> submitting a patch.
> IMHO, the watchdog should handle a reference to the thread running the
> process, not to the process itself. In this way, interrupting signals can be
> transport using default _interrupt()_ method of class _Thread_.
