In process there is a suspicious options |= EXIT_STATUS_EXACT that
is run when the jq script is terminated by halt, or halt_error.
That line of code acutally does nothing because options is a local
argument variable, and is not passed as a pointer. It was probably meant
to be a *options |= EXIT_STATUS_EXACT with the options argument
passed as a int*.
In any case, we do not want to run the code in main() that was supposed
to run if EXIT_STATUS_EXACT is set (but didn't since it is never added
to options); as far as I can tell, we only want to run that code when
the --exit-status/-e option is passed.
So I removed EXIT_STATUS_EXACT completely, and the useless assignment,
instead of fixing it since it was not used for anything else.
Useless assignment detected by clang-tidy.
The option naming --nul-output was confusing, especially when we have a
similar option for input stream in the future (--nul-input vs --null-input).
Based on the observation of other command line tools, we rename the option
to --raw-output0. We also drop the short option -0 to avoid confusion on
introducing the NUL-delimited input option.
Unlike the other command line tools outputting file names with NUL delimiter,
jq deals with JSON, and its strings may contain NUL character. To protect
users from the risk of injection attacks, we abort the program and print an
error message before outputting strings including NUL character. Closes#2683.
The mingw-w64 runtime expands wildcards, which causes a discrepancy
between `main`'s `argv` (multiple file names) and Windows' `wargv` (a
single wildcard). Use `wmain` to retrieve the wide character args.
Windows regards the `NUL` device as tty, which causes `WriteFile` to
fail (the bytes written pointer cannot be `NULL` in this case). Tweak
the color test to ensure tty is accurate.
Windows 10 supports color output, but it must be explicitly enabled;
ANSICON provides support for other versions. Enable color if either of
those are available. Resolves#1494.
* Set default error code to -4 in main(), Fixes#1142
* fix --exit-code with more than one object in input, Fixes#1139
- Return code 1 or 4 based on last output, not last input.
Allow a continuation on a comment immediately after a shebang to make
this traditional hack possible:
#!/bin/sh
# this next line is ignored by jq \
exec jq -f "$0" "$@"
# jq code follows
But continue only on the first line following a shebang, and only if
it's a comment.
