Handle TERM signal

[Brad Wood]

Can JLine handle a SIGTERM with the signal handler?  I've used a signal handler for a long time to receive SIGINT like when Ctrl-C is pressed, but lately after doing more work on Docker with my JLine-powered console app, I noticed that when shutting down a docker container running a JVM CLI daemon process, a SIGTERM is used and I wanted to be able to interrupt my Main thread like I do with a SIGINT so everything can shutdown cleanly.  However, the SignalHandler doesn't seem to be called at all for a SIGTERM and the JVM just exits immediately. .  

If I register a shutdown hook on the JVM, I can accomplish this manually (interrupting the Main thread), but I wanted to make sure I wasn't missing a JLine way to do it.

Thanks!

The SIGTERM signal is missing from the JLine's Signal definition, so you won't be able to intercept it.

Simply adding the definition TERM enum to the Signal definition should work.  Is that what you tried?

I have no idea what "adding the definition TERM enum to the Signal definition" means, lol.  I just registered my own shutdown hook that interrupts the main thread and then waits up to 10 seconds for it to die before allowing the JVM to exit.  That way, any running process in my console app gets a chance to respond to the interrupt and shutdown when my docker containers are stopped.

  main = Thread.currentThread();
   
  Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread(new Runnable() {  
    public void run() {                
        main.interrupt();
        for (int i = 1; i <= 10; i++) {
            if( mainDone ) {
            break;
            }                    
            try {
                Thread.sleep(1000);
            } catch (Exception e) {}
        }
    }        
}));

 

Thanks!

You may want to consider calling thread's 'join(10000L)'.

Thanks for the tip Alejandro.  I had some useful debugging information in the loop originally, but you have a good point, in its final form, there's no difference just joining to the thread with a 10 second timeout.

Thanks!
