"so i want to en my calling program meanwhile."

I dont really understand what you need.

to close the java app and leave the another app running?

ans: Just close your java app, the new app has an independent process

or closing the external app?

ans: Use Process.destroy ();

Sorry I mean: I want to enD my calling program meanwhile

- to close the java app and leave the another app running?

My caller program is a console based program

The program to be called is started by .sh script in unix/.bat in windows

The caller program performs the call to the second and the second program is started but the problem is the caller program never ends, it just waits to the called program ends its tasks and then it ends. I dont want this.

I want the second program be started and the caller program can ends without taking care in which moment the second program ends, of course in automatic way, with no final user ending the caller program.
