Re: RPGLE call Java throws MCH74A5

I believe that System.exit is supposed to terminate the current Java Virtual Machine and should be coded for in the application.

I'm not sure how it exactly works on the IBM i (One JVM for a job) but I've seen the same message. I've removed the System.exit calls in the apps that I've used unless it's for an error condition.

The more common way to end the program is to reach the end of the main method.

I have an RPGLE program that calls a 3rd party Java app. Right now it does a handful of RUNJVA using QCMDEXC. I'm trying to call the Java directly from RPGLE because I think I'll get better performance on repeat calls. Running interactively, the first Java call seems to work, but I get this MCH74A5 error:
Message . . . . : The Java Virtual Machine has ended.
Cause . . . . . : Java Virtual Machine 1 has ended because of reason 1. The
reason codes are defined as follows:
01- A Java program called the java.lang.System.exit method with a zero
status code.

From what I can find, a 0 code means success, so I'm not sure why it's killing my JVM.
