Jean-Baptiste Onofré commented on KARAF-3955:
---------------------------------------------
As existing scripts may depend to this exit code, I prefer to keep as it's.
More over, everything which is not 0 means an error, some negative values can
be used.
Right now, Karaf main can return:
- -1 if the KARAF_DATA is not a directory or if the OSGi framework can be
launched
- -2 if an error occurs while shutting down the OSGi framework (at exit)
- -3 if Karaf timed out waiting the OSGi framework to stop
> Use of negative shell exit codes is not delux

> Project: Karaf
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Benson Margulies
> Assignee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
> Priority: Minor
>
> Main.java has a set of calls like: System.exit(-1);.
> EXIT_FAILURE is '1', not '-1', and in general negative values aren't
> necessary, since the definition of 'oops' is 'not 0'. I propose that these be
> adjusted.
