           Summary: Forked Processes (Exec, Java) Leak Threads and Hang
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.8.1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


This can result in "OutOfMemoryError: unable to create new native thread" when
many forked processes are used.

It can also result in app hangs, the root cause of which are extremely
difficult to track down.  Apparently, the process blocks while waiting for
input.

We experienced hangs on a particular subset of XP machines, but we couldn't
determine what characteristic(s) that subset had in common.  When a Java
process forked an Ant process that forked a Java process without using the
inputstring="" work around, a subsequently forked Java process hung.
