Hi,
I think you can not acheive this. You can not return to the command prompt
( without using the OS facilities) untill the JVM exits. Now the JVM will
not exit till there are non Daemon threads running. If you use
System.exit(), you exit the JVM and so there is no question of any more
threads running as there is no JVM running to support these threads.
I would love to know if I am wrong here.
Regds,
Gokul ( Pl. see I am no Guru..)
