[roswell (Takahiro Yamaguchi)]

My environment is Windows 10 msys2 mingw64

yama@JPC00183513 ~/b/p/sample> uname -a
MINGW64_NT-10.0-17763 JPC00183513 3.0.7-338.x86_64 2019-05-27 06:58 UTC x86_64 Msys
yama@JPC00183513 ~/b/p/sample> ruby --version
ruby 2.6.3p62 (2019-04-16 revision 67580) [x64-mingw32]

My script is

yama@JPC00183513 ~/b/p/sample> cat signal.rb
# coding: utf-8
$stdout.sync = true

p Signal.list

# EXIT       mignw fail
# INT w pass mingw fail
# QUIT       mingw unsupported signal `SIGQUIT' (ArgumentError)
# ILL        mingw can't trap reserved signal: SIGILL (ArgumentError)
# ABRT       mingw fail
# FPE        mingw can't trap reserved signal: SIGFPE (ArgumentError)
# KILL       mingw Invalid argument - SIGKILL (Errno::EINVAL)
# TERM       mingw fail
Signal.trap(:INT) {
 puts "まわって"
 puts "まわって"
 puts "まわって"
 exit
}

while true
 puts "とんで"
 sleep 3
end

Execute the above script, then type C-c to interrupt it

yama@JPC00183513 ~/b/p/sample> ruby signal.rb
{"EXIT"=>0, "INT"=>2, "ILL"=>4, "ABRT"=>22, "FPE"=>8, "KILL"=>9, "SEGV"=>11, "TERM"=>15}
とんで
とんで

The "Signal.trap(:INT)" block is NOT executed.

I assume the ruby msys2 mingw64 have a bug around Signal handling.

I checked:

ruby 2.7.0dev (2019-08-09T15:04:06Z master 8d7e0159c0) [x64-mingw32]     ruby-loco
ruby 2.6.3p62 (2019-04-16 revision 67580) [x64-mingw32]                  RubyInstaller2 / OneClick

JFYI, tried both in a PowerShell window, and trunk in a cmd window.

All worked as expected. Not sure why the difference...

This was due to the limit of mintty.
There can be a chance that this will be solved by mintty (and other terminal emulators for Windows) using Windows Pseudo Console in the future, I guess.
