[ https://jira.jboss.org/browse/TEIID-1355?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.s... ] Aleksandar Kostadinov commented on TEIID-1355: ---------------------------------------------- The problem is not that groovy doesn't recognize the commands sent through std in on windows. It just doesn't see them and waits for input on the terminal. echo "println 'hello'" | adminshell.bat here adminshell starts and waits for interactive input. The println expression has gone nowhere. I have investigated the issue and it seems to lives inside the groovy shell [1] which uses the JLine library for handling user input. I couldn't really disable jline by the system properties described in the jline documentation but I observed changes in behavior. Also jython is using jline for interactive and another implementation for non-interactive uses to avoid unexpected stdin problems [2]. So it seems fixing the behavior on windows would not be so easy as I have thought (without removing convenience for interactive users). I'm leaving to you the decision if you keep the issue open. IMHO a real fix would be to make jline detect if stdin is interactive or not (if possible) and handle situation appropriately. A line in the adminshell docs describing the issue would be also a good thing to do. Thank you. [1] https://svn.codehaus.org/groovy/trunk/groovy/groovy-core/src/main/org/cod...

JIRA doesn't send email notifications to me for comments to this issue which is strange, anybody else having this problem? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
