Gary Gregory commented on EXEC-53: ---------------------------------- How about a unit test? :) > Allow control over asynchronous execution thread > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: EXEC-53 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXEC-53 > Project: Commons Exec > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 1.1 > Reporter: Nickolay Martinov > Labels: patch > Attachments: commons-exec-daemon.patch > > Original Estimate: 2h > Remaining Estimate: 2h > > When process is started asynchronously using DefaultExecutor then thread is > created that monitors process. This thread is user thread and blocks java > program from exiting. There is no way to make this thread daemon. Allowing > this to be a daemon thread one would be able to spawn process without &, > monitor this process for some time to be sure that it is alive and then exit > without calling System.exit() that isnt always possible/desirable. > Also it would be nice to be able to create thread with specific priority or > thread group or thread name or anything else. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
