Getting rid of "buffer has running process" confirmation when the process is a flymake process

Question

Is there a way to tell emacs to always kill flymake processes when I'm closing the associated buffer? I don't want to get the confirmation when the only process associated with the buffer is a flymake process?

Answer 1

Here's a patch. The gist is to modify the function that invokes flymake to use set-process-query-on-exit-flag to set the process-query-on-exit-flag variable to nil for the flymake process. See also C-h f set-process-query-on-exit-flag.
