Antoine Pitrou <pit...@free.fr> added the comment: I would like to know what our resident Windows users think about this (Paul, Steve, Zach).
Reading the above arguments, I'd be inclined to settle on 15 (that is, the non-negative "signal" number). While it is not consistent with what "taskkill" or other APIs do, it makes it clear that the process was terminated in a certain way. Certainly, there is a slight chance that 15 is a legitimate error code returned by the process, but that is far less likely than returning 1 as a legitimate error code, which I presume is extremely common. In any case, this can't go in a bugfix release, so marking as 3.7-only. ---------- versions: -Python 3.6, Python 3.8 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue31863> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
