             Summary: UIMA-AS should not be using System.exit()
                 Key: UIMA-3905
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-3905
             Project: UIMA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Async Scaleout
            Reporter: Jerry Cwiklik
            Assignee: Jerry Cwiklik
             Fix For: 2.6.1AS


There are a few places where UIMA-AS calls System.exit(). This should be 
removed and a different approach is needed to force the cleanup. 
In one scenario, the UIMA-AS terminates when configured error threshold is 
reached for AE. In another, the UIMA-AS catches java Error like OOM .

If the UIMA-AS is deployed in a Tomcat container for example the exit() kills 
the jvm which is a big issue. 

To support embedding in applications, the UIMA-AS must provide a better way to 
deal with termination state. One possible approach could be to notify the 
service wrapper/container that a fatal state has been detected and have the 
container call stop to clean things up.
