Re: How do exec:java on a mainclass that calls System.exit() without terminating the maven build?

exec-maven-plugin has been released and this now works:
 https://github.com/steinarb/convert-xsd-to-rnc/blob/master/pom.xml#L46

This is a regular java project that crashed eclipse when blockSystemExit
didn't block exit from com.thaiopensource.relaxng.translate.Driver
 https://github.com/steinarb/sampleapp/blob/master/sampleapp.db.liquibase/pom.xml#L157

But with exec-maven-plugin 3.5.1, eclipse now survives a maven update of
the project.

Thanks!
