Hi!

I noticed that the CDT uses an own spawner with native libraries. Was it
because of limitations of the different Java VMs? Is it possible to use this
spawner in other projects?

Cu, Gunnar

The spawner has methods to interrupt a process (currently used by the gdb/mi debugger),
also with a 1.3 VM on win32 it will surpress the DOS console which normally pops up for
every Runtime.exec().

Sure, the only possible issue is that you will have a cdt.core dependency, but if your
plugin is a cdt extension or tool then I guess it doesn't matter.
