exit
System.exit(int retcode) is a method to immediately terminate your application. Presumably the operating system will tidy up after you and dispose of all the native GUI resources you were using. Ironically programs don’t even start processing events until the main routine has exited via return — not via System.exit. System.exit shuts down all the event processing.
