return code when file system full
|
|
Hi all,
being new to this list, I have to admit that I'm not at all sure about
standard procedures here. I tried to read the archives, but found an
empty page on:
http://pldaniels.com/pipermail/ripmime-general/
So I just try my best.
Some time ago I came across ripmime and happily created a perl script to
force each and every incoming email through ripmime. Looks like it works
fine in the first moment, and it happily disassembled any email I gave
it to chew.
When I cut down the available file system space, alas, it didn't report
error through it's return code. Is this intended behavior, lazy
programming, my error in using it - or something else?
Skimming though source code I found, that
MIME_generate_multiple_hardlink_filenames
always returns 0, even if it issued a WARNING about it's inability to
create hard links.
And I found, that MIME_decode_raw does return -1, but it looks like this
result gets lost somewhere on the way to ripmime's return code. I didn't
follow the chain yet; maybe it's just intended that ripmime users parse
STDOUT for errors?
Thanks for any help
Andreas
