When Shutdown Hooks Break Bad

Question

public class MyShutdownHook implements Runnable
{
    @Override
    public void run(         


        

Answer 1

• If the process is killed, a shutdown hook will not be executed.

• If the process crashes, a shutdown hook will not be executed.

• If you have a Windows service and the shutdown hook takes to long to execute, it will be terminated.
