> Key: MSHARED-295
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSHARED-295
> Project: Maven Shared Components

> CommandLineUtils is used in Maven-Surefire to start forks which execute
> tests. It is a well known issue that sometimes child processes are not killed
> correctly. This is a known limitation of JVM, and the only reliable way to
> implement it would be platform specific.
> Bug report in Surefire JIRA:
> http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SUREFIRE-773
> JVM bug report. It's Windows specific, but the problem exists on Linux and
> OSX as well.
> http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=4770092
> I'm proposing either 1) to implement several platform specific
> implementations of ProcessHook or 2) to make the mechanism of killing
> processes extendable for clients of the library.
