Starting and stopping multiple processes

Right-clicking in the Process Control pane, but not on any process, opens a menu with options for starting, restarting, or shutting down multiple processes.

Selecting Start, Stop or Restart opens the Select Processes to Start/Stop/Restart dialog box. This dialog box is a list of processes. The title depends on the menu selection.

When you select Restart, this dialog box lists only the running processes.

Multiple processes can be selected from the list. After you click OK, the IDE starts/stops/restarts the selected processes. The order to start/stop/restart the processes is the same as the order of the selected processes on the list. The command line output is appended to the Command and Engine Output pane, where you can see the results.

You can also right-click any of the processes to access the Control > All Processes menu, which opens the same Select Processes to Start/Stop/Restart dialog box.

  • If no process is running, then only Start is available.
  • If all processes are running, then Stop and Restart are available.
  • If some processes are running and some are dead, then Start, Stop, and Restart are all available.
