Re: Ctrl-Break killing subprocess even though handled in parent process


Greetings, Brien Oberstein!

> I have a dotnet windows console application that runs a bash script as a
> subprocess using CreateProcess()  under the covers.

> My windows app traps Ctrl-Break via SetConsoleCtrlHandler() and handles it
> (returning true from the handler).

> I execute the script via the command "bash.exe --login script.sh".

> Somehow the Ctrl-Break is reaching the subprocess and causing it to be
> killed, which is undesireable.

> Is there a way to either prevent the Ctrl-Break from reaching the cygwin

You will be laughing, but I just stumbled upon this issue myself with
TCC+bash -i. When I press ^Break in bash prompt, parent TCC dies.
