[JDK-8290036](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8290036) documented the shutdown sequence, noting that calling Runtime.halt() skips the shutdown sequence and immediately terminates the VM. Thus, "threads' current methods do not complete normally or abruptly; no finally clause of any method is executed".
One ramification of this is that resources within try-with-resource blocks will not be released. It would be good to state this explicitly. ------------- Commit messages: - Merge branch 'master' into 8295857 - update halt() @apiNote - update doc changes - Update doc for Runtime class and halt() method Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11218/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=11218&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8295857 Stats: 7 lines in 1 file changed: 2 ins; 0 del; 5 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11218.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk pull/11218/head:pull/11218 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/11218
