- *
- * It seems to break for the actors started from the Java world, with new Process()
- * while it works for the ones started from the C world, with the deployment file.
- * When it happens, the simulation stops brutally with a message "untrapped exception StopRequest".
- *
- * From what I understand, it works for the native actors because they have a nice try/catch block around their main
- * but I fail to have something like that for pure Java actors. That's probably a story of C->Java vs Java->C
- * calling conventions. The right solution may be to have try/catch(StopRequest) blocks around each native call in
- * JNI. ie, protect every Java->C++ call from C++ exceptions. But this sounds long and painful to do before we
- * switch to an automatic generator such as SWIG. For now, we don't throw here that exception that we sometimes fail
- * to catch.
- *
- * One of the unfortunate outcome is that the threads started from the deployment file are not stopped anymore.
- * Or maybe this is the actors stopping gracefully as opposed to the killed ones? Or maybe this is absolutely all
- * actors of the Java simulation? I'm not sure. Anyway. Because of them, the simulation hangs at the end, waiting
- * for them to stop but they won't. The current answer to that is very brutal:
- * we do a "exit(0)" to kill the JVM from the C code after the call to MSG_run(). Definitely unpleasant.
