Subject: bug#1058: 23.0.60; emacs --daemon should not return until socket is ready
Date: Tue, 30 Sep 2008 23:13:54 +0930 (CST) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1222782234_2281@mail.internode.on.net> (raw)
From this transcript, you can see that after starting 'emacs
--daemon', it takes five seconds before the socket is actually
available for emacsclient to talk to it.
$ emacs --daemon; while ! ls /tmp/emacs1187/; do sleep 1; done
emacs: no process killed
ls: cannot access /tmp/emacs1187/: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access /tmp/emacs1187/: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access /tmp/emacs1187/: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access /tmp/emacs1187/: No such file or directory
server
This is evil; it means that making $ALTERNATE_EDITOR a script that
just does
emacs --daemon && emacsclient
results in a loop, because the socket isn't ready when emacsclient
starts -- so emacsclient runs the above script again. For --daemon to
be useful to me, it really must not exit until the socket is ready.
A filthy workaround might look something like this.
#!/bin/bash -e
emacs --daemon
while ! test -e /tmp/emacs$EUID/server
do sleep 1
done
