- Method Detail
  - pid
```
long pid()
```
    Returns the native process ID of the process. The native process ID is an identification number that the operating system assigns to the process. The operating system may reuse the process ID after a process terminates. Use equals or compareTo to compare ProcessHandles.
    
    Returns:
    
    the native process ID of the process
    
    Throws:
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if the implementation does not support this operation
  - of
```
static Optional<ProcessHandle> of(long pid)
```
    Returns an Optional<ProcessHandle> for an existing native process.
    
    Parameters:
    
    pid - a native process ID
    
    Returns:
    
    an Optional<ProcessHandle> of the PID for the process; the Optional is empty if the process does not exist
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityException - if a security manager has been installed and it denies RuntimePermission("manageProcess")
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if the implementation does not support this operation
  - current
```
static ProcessHandle current()
```
    Returns a ProcessHandle for the current process. The ProcessHandle cannot be used to destroy the current process, use System.exit instead.
    
    Returns:
    
    a ProcessHandle for the current process
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityException - if a security manager has been installed and it denies RuntimePermission("manageProcess")
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if the implementation does not support this operation
  - parent
```
Optional<ProcessHandle> parent()
```
    Returns an Optional<ProcessHandle> for the parent process. Note that Processes in a zombie state usually don't have a parent.
    
    Returns:
    
    an Optional<ProcessHandle> of the parent process; the Optional is empty if the child process does not have a parent or if the parent is not available, possibly due to operating system limitations
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityException - if a security manager has been installed and it denies RuntimePermission("manageProcess")
  - children
```
Stream<ProcessHandle> children()
```
    Returns a snapshot of the current direct children of the process. The parent() of a direct child process is the process. Typically, a process that is not alive has no children.
    Note that processes are created and terminate asynchronously. There is no guarantee that a process is alive.
    
    Returns:
    
    a sequential Stream of ProcessHandles for processes that are direct children of the process
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityException - if a security manager has been installed and it denies RuntimePermission("manageProcess")
  - descendants
```
Stream<ProcessHandle> descendants()
```
    Returns a snapshot of the descendants of the process. The descendants of a process are the children of the process plus the descendants of those children, recursively. Typically, a process that is not alive has no children.
    Note that processes are created and terminate asynchronously. There is no guarantee that a process is alive.
    
    Returns:
    
    a sequential Stream of ProcessHandles for processes that are descendants of the process
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityException - if a security manager has been installed and it denies RuntimePermission("manageProcess")
  - allProcesses
```
static Stream<ProcessHandle> allProcesses()
```
    Returns a snapshot of all processes visible to the current process.
    Note that processes are created and terminate asynchronously. There is no guarantee that a process in the stream is alive or that no other processes may have been created since the inception of the snapshot.
    
    Returns:
    
    a Stream of ProcessHandles for all processes
    
    Throws:
    
    SecurityException - if a security manager has been installed and it denies RuntimePermission("manageProcess")
    
    UnsupportedOperationException - if the implementation does not support this operation
  - info
```
ProcessHandle.Info info()
```
    Returns a snapshot of information about the process.
    A ProcessHandle.Info instance has accessor methods that return information about the process if it is available.
    
    Returns:
    
    a snapshot of information about the process, always non-null
  - onExit
```
CompletableFuture<ProcessHandle> onExit()
```
    Returns a CompletableFuture<ProcessHandle> for the termination of the process. The CompletableFuture provides the ability to trigger dependent functions or actions that may be run synchronously or asynchronously upon process termination. When the process has terminated the CompletableFuture is completed regardless of the exit status of the process. The onExit method can be called multiple times to invoke independent actions when the process exits.
    Calling onExit().get() waits for the process to terminate and returns the ProcessHandle. The future can be used to check if the process is done or to wait for it to terminate. Cancelling the CompleteableFuture does not affect the Process.
    
    Returns:
    
    a new CompletableFuture<ProcessHandle> for the ProcessHandle
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if the process is the current process
  - supportsNormalTermination
```
boolean supportsNormalTermination()
```
    Returns true if the implementation of destroy() normally terminates the process. Returns false if the implementation of destroy forcibly and immediately terminates the process.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the implementation of destroy() normally terminates the process; otherwise, destroy() forcibly terminates the process
  - destroy
```
boolean destroy()
```
    Requests the process to be killed. Whether the process represented by this ProcessHandle object is normally terminated or not is implementation dependent. Forcible process destruction is defined as the immediate termination of the process, whereas normal termination allows the process to shut down cleanly. If the process is not alive, no action is taken. The operating system access controls may prevent the process from being killed.
    The CompletableFuture from onExit() is completed when the process has terminated.
    Note: The process may not terminate immediately. For example, isAlive() may return true for a brief period after destroy() is called.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if termination was successfully requested, otherwise false
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if the process is the current process
  - destroyForcibly
```
boolean destroyForcibly()
```
    Requests the process to be killed forcibly. The process represented by this ProcessHandle object is forcibly terminated. Forcible process destruction is defined as the immediate termination of the process, whereas normal termination allows the process to shut down cleanly. If the process is not alive, no action is taken. The operating system access controls may prevent the process from being killed.
    The CompletableFuture from onExit() is completed when the process has terminated.
    Note: The process may not terminate immediately. For example, isAlive() may return true for a brief period after destroyForcibly() is called.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if termination was successfully requested, otherwise false
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalStateException - if the process is the current process
  - isAlive
```
boolean isAlive()
```
    Tests whether the process represented by this ProcessHandle is alive. Process termination is implementation and operating system specific. The process is considered alive as long as the PID is valid.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the process represented by this ProcessHandle object has not yet terminated
  - hashCode
```
int hashCode()
```
    Returns a hash code value for this ProcessHandle. The hashcode value follows the general contract for Object.hashCode(). The value is a function of the pid() value and may be a function of additional information to uniquely identify the process. If two ProcessHandles are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
    
    Overrides:
    
    hashCode in class Object
    
    Returns:
    
    a hash code value for this object
    
    See Also:
    
    Object.equals(java.lang.Object)
  - equals
```
boolean equals(Object other)
```
    Returns true if other object is non-null, is of the same implementation, and represents the same system process; otherwise it returns false.
    
    Overrides:
    
    equals in class Object
    
    Parameters:
    
    other - another object
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the other object is non-null, is of the same implementation class and represents the same system process; otherwise returns false
    
    See Also:
    
    Object.hashCode()
  - compareTo
```
int compareTo(ProcessHandle other)
```
    Compares this ProcessHandle with the specified ProcessHandle for order. The order is not specified, but is consistent with Object.equals(java.lang.Object), which returns true if and only if two instances of ProcessHandle are of the same implementation and represent the same system process. Comparison is only supported among objects of same implementation. If attempt is made to mutually compare two different implementations of ProcessHandles, ClassCastException is thrown.
    
    Specified by:
    
    compareTo in interface Comparable<ProcessHandle>
    
    Parameters:
    
    other - the ProcessHandle to be compared
    
    Returns:
    
    a negative integer, zero, or a positive integer as this object is less than, equal to, or greater than the specified object.
    
    Throws:
    
    NullPointerException - if the specified object is null
    
    ClassCastException - if the specified object is not of same class as this object
