----------------------------------------------
Summary: Child processes not getting killed
Key: EXEC-123
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXEC-123
Project: Commons Exec
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.4.0
Reporter: Wolff Bock von Wuelfingen
While searching for something completely different related to Commons Exec, i
found this:
[https://stackoverflow.com/questions/35601924/java-apache-commons-exec-watchdog-and-windows-cmd-exe-issues]
The answer there uses `Process.descendants()` to also kill the child processes.
That method was added with Java 9.
Since this problem is important enough to be one of the five [FAQ
questions|https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-exec/faq.html], i think it
might be a good idea to raise the minimum Java version of Commons Exec and use
the `descendants()` method to fix that problem.
