How can the player be stopped?

[HelgeStenstrom]

I can't find how to stop the player. When I run Main.main(), it continues to sound after main() exits. The only way I have found is to call System.exit().

How can the player thread be stopped and/or joined?

You can call

java-stream-player/src/main/java/com/goxr3plus/streamplayer/stream/StreamPlayer.java

Lines 598 to 612 in 8bb2ad1

	/**
	* Stops the play back.<br>
	* <p>
	* Player Status = STOPPED.<br>
	* Thread should free Audio resources.
	*/
	public void stop() {
	if (status == Status.STOPPED)
	return;
	if (isPlaying())
	pause();
	status = Status.STOPPED;
	// generateEvent(Status.STOPPED, getEncodedStreamPosition(), null);
	logger.info("StreamPlayer stopPlayback() completed");
	}

From what I could see, that stopped the playing, but the main application did not exit, because there was still a thread running.

I made some tests with stop() in my new main(). The playback stopped, but the application didn't exit if I didn't call System.exit().
Of course I didn't include this test in the pull request.

Hm then it's the ExecutorService of Stream Player that doesn't exit immediately probably :)

I just realized that this issue is the same as #1 .
