Netbeans Run->Stop Build does not stop the running java processes - netbeans

Question

I'm using Netbeans 7.1.2 on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.3.
I have a simple java server (using netty) project and after I build and run the project then try to stop the running by Run->Stop Build it does not terminate the java server process.
For example, my server app uses port 8080 and even after I stop running from the netbeans the port 8080 is in use and the app keeps running. I have to manually kill the java process from activity monitor.
What's the correct procedure to end the running app started by Netbeans?
Greatly appreciate your help. Thanks in advanced.

Have a look at the documentation: http://netty.io/docs/stable/guide/html/. Scroll down to section 9. Shutting Down Your Application.
Your main app ahs to look something like:
package org.jboss.netty.example.time;
public class TimeServer {
static final ChannelGroup allChannels = new DefaultChannelGroup("time-server"(35));
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
...
ChannelFactory factory = ...;
ServerBootstrap bootstrap = ...;
...
Channel channel = bootstrap.bind(...);
allChannels.add(channel);
...
// Shutdown code
ChannelGroupFuture future = allChannels.close();
future.awaitUninterruptibly();
factory.releaseExternalResources();
}
}
You handler needs:
public void channelOpen(ChannelHandlerContext ctx, ChannelStateEvent e) {
TimeServer.allChannels.add(e.getChannel());
}
You have to:
1. Store all your channels in a ChannelGroup
2. When shutting down, close all channel and release resources.
Hope this helps.
