PROBLEM:



I have a shell program that I have been writing but I can't find out how to make sure that trap is trapping for cleanup at the end or because of a error in some command, it cleans up either way.



Here is the code:



################################### Successful exit then this cleanup ###########################################################3

successfulExit()

###############################################################################################################################33
####### Catch the program on successful exit and cleanup
trap successfulExit EXIT


QUESTION:



How can I make trap only trap EXIT on program finish?



Here is the full script:



debianConfigAwsome.5.3.sh

          On entry to the EXIT trap, $? contains the exit status. That's the same value you'd find as $? after calling this script in another shell: either the argument passed to exit (truncated to the range 0–255) or the return status of the preceding command. In the case of an exit due to set -e, it's the return status of the command that triggered the implicit exit.



          Usually you should save $? and exit again with the same status.



          cleanup () 
          if [ -n "$1" ]; then
          echo "Aborted by $1"
          elif [ $status -ne 0 ]; then
          echo "Failure (status $status)"
          else
          echo "Success"
          fi

          trap 'status=$?; cleanup; exit $status' EXIT
          trap 'trap - HUP; cleanup SIGHUP; kill -HUP $$' HUP
          trap 'trap - INT; cleanup SIGINT; kill -INT $$' INT
          trap 'trap - TERM; cleanup SIGTERM; kill -TERM $$' TERM
