Siegfried Goeschl commented on EXEC-59:
---------------------------------------

Is it possible to avoid spawning processes? I removed all my little helper scripts and start the processes directly which also helps on WIndows

> execute() does not return if executed process spawned other processes

> When executing a process that spawns other processes, DefaultExecutor.execute() does not return until these secondary processes die.
> This is a problem for me because I am executing a long-running service that uses long-running helper processes. I want to know if the service process crashes (which leaves the helper processes running), but I never get any notice because execute() does not return. It blocks while calling PumpStreamHandler.stop().
