title: Good Java Process Control Library
body: <p>Java process control is notoriously bad - primarily due to inadequate support by the Java VM/JDK classes (e.g. java.lang.Process).</p>
  
  <p>I am wondering, are there any good open source libraries out there that are reliable.</p>
  
  <p>The requirements would be:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>OSS</li>
  <li>Start/Stop processes</li>
  <li>Manage STDIN and STDOUT</li>
  <li>cross platform (at least Linux,
  Windows, Solaris, HP, and IBM in
  that order)</li>
  <li>(optional) restartable</li>
  <li>(desirable) mature</li>
  </ol>
