Stop Child Process When Parent Process Stops

In my android application, I create a child process with Runtime.getRuntime().exec(). But may be a situation, where a user kills my application, but the child process is still runn

Solution 1:

I would

• Keep track of the processes created by my application.
• register a shutdown hook with the JVM through Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook() that would be called when the application is shutdown and kill all the processes spawned, that were tracked in previous step.
