[OSM-dev] Killing osm2pgsql application while updating PostGIS. What happens?

[Giuseppe Castagno]

Hi all,

the questions is in the mail subject.

More to the point, killing osm2pgsql in the middle of applying a diff, 
does that leave the PostGIS data base in an inconsistent state?

Browsing the svn osm2pgsql source code it seems there a function ( 
exit_nicely() in osm2pgsql.c ) that should perform the clean up before 
shutting down osm2pgsql.

Though I didn'd find anything managing the SIGKILL event.
