| when the launched process is terminated (for example by clicking the terminate button). |
| <p> |
| It is now possible to configure in the Launch-Configuration if the child-processes of a launched process should be terminated too or if they should stay alive, in case the launched processes is terminated. |
| You can control this with the check-box <b>Terminate child-processes if terminating the launched process</b> in the <b>Common</b> tab of the <b>Run/Debug Configurations</b> dialog. |
| By default this check-box is selected and child-processes are termianted too. |
