Hi Mark, That's an unfortunate artifact of evolution. Process.getPid() was added early in 2014 and ProcessHandle a year later.
Several iterations of ProcessHandle API explored Process being a subclass of ProcessHandle so the method names would be the same. When ProcessHandle was decoupled from Process
the method name was retained for consistency. Roger On 4/7/2017 10:29 AM, mark.reinh...@oracle.com wrote:
Playing around with the `ProcessHandle` API the other day, I noticed that it uses non-Beans accessor names (good!) -- except for `getPid()`. Is there a reason why that method isn't just `pid()`? - Mark
