Hello all,
I'm doing some work with vcs and I've hit what seems like a very silly
problem. When vcs exits with a compile error, the vcs program is still
returning a zero. I've never seen any other tool or complier behave that
way on a Unix box.
Does anyone have any nice suggestions for automatically figuring out if vcs
failed? I realize I could parse the output from vcs, but that is somewhat
inconvenient (read would take me a few hours of changing other stuff).
Does vcs really behave that way? Is there any way to get it to actually
produce an error code when it actually hits an error?
Thanks for any thoughts or help.
