Thanks, I'll have a look. BTW, I was able to confirm it is a result of streams. My Java processes do not quit if I pipe their output to null: NSTask *task = [NSTask new]; [task setLaunchPath:execPath]; [task setCurrentDirectoryPath:_directory]; [task setArguments:arguments]; [task setStandardError:[NSFileHandle fileHandleWithNullDevice]]; [task setStandardOutput:[NSFileHandle fileHandleWithNullDevice]]; [task launch];
So if I want to capture the output I can simply use a file handle to a real file and it looks like the NSTask process no longer quits.
