Description Ralf Ebert CLA 2010-05-17 16:07:31 EDT 
Mac OS X 10.6, JDK 1.6 x86_64, -console without port works, -console with port terminates immediately.

Step to reproduce:

- Eclipse Project SDK 3.6 RC1 (I20100513-1500), new workspace
- Create a new Plug-in project for OSGi Framework Equinox, with Activator, don't use a template
- Create a new OSGi Framework run configuration from scratch, deselect all bundles, only launch with the created bundle + dependency org.eclipse.osgi. Default arguments are:

Program: -os ${target.os} -ws ${target.ws} -arch ${target.arch} -nl ${target.nl} -consoleLog -console
VM: -Declipse.ignoreApp=true -Dosgi.noShutdown=true

- Launching works, sysout console comes and stays up
- Add a port number to the -console option, it prints:

Listening on port 1234 ...

and immediately exits.

- Open the same workspace in 3.5.2, launch the exact same run config, here it runs and stays up.

I will fix this in 3.6.1.  We can easily make the port listening thread non-daemon.

You can work around the issue by using the following configuration option.

osgi.framework.activeThreadType=normal
