Description yjoan 2012-06-28 12:50:01 UTC 
On Windows I noticed that if you double click an fxml from within NB 7.2 Beta, then get SceneBuilder up, do whatever change within SceneBuilder and finally exit from NetBeans it will kill abruptly your SceneBuilder (then any pending changes are lost).
Doing it the reverse way is fine: you start SceneBuilder first then NetBeans, in which case exit from NetBeans won't kill SceneBuilder.

On Mac nothing like that occurs, SceneBuilder survives NetBeans's exit in all cases.
Comment 1 J Bachorik 2012-06-29 10:30:20 UTC 
The ExternalExecution API takes care of ending processes connected to the IDE process on shutdown. On Mac the SceneBuilder process is detached from the IDE process by the launcher and as such it is not closed on IDE shutdown. On Window, on the other hand, the launcher process does not fork an independent SB process and, as a result, SB will get closed on IDE shutdown.

Fixing by bot using ExternalExecution API - the standard Java mechanism for launching system processes does not care about leaving them orphaned once the launching process exits: http://hg.netbeans.org/profiler-main/rev/95e7c78b4ec4

Please, re-test on Mac to see whether this fix causes no regressions (I have no access to a Mac machine ...)

Fix doesn't seems to be present on the patch UC and the bug is reproducible after update. Maybe the spec. version wasn't increased...
