Hi,

I have a cygwin bash script running on 32 bit XP.

I have a windows BAT script calling bash, like so:

-------------------
bash mainScript.sh 2>&1 | tee %LOGFILE%
bash mailBuild.sh %ERRORLEVEL% %LOGFILE%
-------------------


What I was hoping was that bash would propagate the shell script's return code to the external OS, but as far as I can see the windows ERRORLEVEL is always 0.

Is there a way to make bash do this?

John.
