How to exit from find -exec if it fails on one of the files

Question

I want to run the command

find some/path -exec program \\{} \\; 

but I want the find command to quit as soon as the command

Answer 1

You could pipe the output from find to another subprocess and use while/break:

find some/path | while read f
do
    program $f
    if [ $? -ne 0 ]
    then
        break
    fi
done
