Your problem is unrelated to the Jobs framework. The debugger was using
a job to listen for process termination. This job was changed to a
simple java.lang.Thread in the 3.0.2 release. Here is a bug with the
details:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=75454
You might want to ask the same question with a different subject line to
find out the best way to listen for process termination. Your previous
approach of listening for a job with a given name was brittle, as it
depended on an implementation detail of the debugger's launch framework.
The launch framework fires an event when processes terminate, you just
need to figure out where to attach a listener to get this information.
