process-sentinels aren't called in batch mode. I'm not sure if this is
a bug or the expected behavior, but I find this quite frustrating.
To reproduce the problem do:
$shell> cat test-sentinel.el
(defvar sentinel-called nil)
(defun start-subprocess ()
(let ((proc (start-process "test" nil "bash" "-c" "sleep 1 ; exit 20")))
(set-process-sentinel proc (lambda (proc msg)
(message "sentinel: %S %s" proc msg)
(setq sentinel-called t)))
proc))
(defun print-status (proc)
(message "%s status: %s exit-status: %s sentinel-called: %s"
proc (process-status proc) (process-exit-status proc)
sentinel-called))
(defun main ()
(let ((proc (start-subprocess)))
(while (not sentinel-called)
(print-status proc)
(sit-for 1)
(accept-process-output proc 1))
(print-status proc)))
(main)
$shell> emacs -Q -batch -l test-sentinel.el
test status: run exit-status: 0 sentinel-called: nil
test status: exit exit-status: 20 sentinel-called: nil
test status: exit exit-status: 20 sentinel-called: nil
test status: exit exit-status: 20 sentinel-called: nil
test status: exit exit-status: 20 sentinel-called: nil
[Exit 130 (SIGINT)]
$shell>
Emacs can obviously detect that the suprocess has terminated but the
sentinel is never called. This used to work with Emacs 20.7 and for
certain variants of the 22.0.50 series.
