There is nothing special about the Java program. Might be e.g. public class ShutdownHookTester { public static void main(String[] args) { Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread() { public void run() { System.out.println("Cleaning up"); } }); for (int i=0;i<10000;i++) { System.out.print("."); try { Thread.sleep(1000); } catch (InterruptedException e) { } } } }
When run under CygWin, pressing CTRL-C will just give you your shell prompt: $java -cp target/other-utils-1.0.jar com.edb.bds.util.ShutdownHookTester ... $ Run from cmd.exe, however, the Shutdown Hook is executed as it should be, yielding: C:\java -cp . com.edb.bds.util.ShutdownHookTester ....Cleaning up C:\ -- View this message in context: http://cygwin.1069669.n5.nabble.com/CTRL-C-is-not-working-with-java-on-latest-cygwin-1-7-15-tp63179p94878.html Sent from the Cygwin list mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
