Diane, Interrupts such as Ctrl-C are handled nicely by the method java.lang.Runtime.addShutdownHook(Thread) that was added in JDK 1.3. This may be a way to handle this issue... at least on JDK 1.3.

Just a note: If I interrupt ant during a compile, I get jikes-<longnum> files left around. (And sometimes, jikes processes lying around as well.) I seem to remember someone (Pete?) saying java doesn't handle interrupts -- can that be right? If it actually can handle them, then <javac> should clean up these files (along with the jikes process). If it can't... :( Diane ===== ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo! Photos - 35mm Quality Prints, Now Get 15 Free! http://photos.yahoo.com/
