Hello Roger, the way I read that last sentence, it gives an impression that if `ProcessBuilder` was used to launch a `Process` from within the current Java process, then if the invoked process' stream is closed, then the current Java process exits. Do you think it should be reworded to avoid any confusion? ------------- PR Review Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/25884#discussion_r2172345043
