The documentation for "shutdown-agents" says "Initiates a shutdown of
the thread pools that back the agent system. Running actions will
complete, but no new actions will be accepted".
I think you are responsible for ending the currently running agents.
The usual method is to set up some field which the agents monitor
looking for some value indicating the application is ending.
You have a command-line utility, so the following doesn't apply to
your case. I have a gui application with multiple windows for each
"document". When the document window closes, I need to stop the
associated agents for that window. Rather than set up some field as I
suggested above, I do the following.
===========================
(defn bossAgentAction [_ achiGameHandle #^JFrame achiFrame]
(when (.isDisplayable achiFrame)
....
(send-off *agent* #'bossAgentAction achiGameHandle achiFrame)))
nil)
===========================
That is, I use the JFrame itself to indicate when the agent thread
should terminate.
