Any way to shut down Java process programmatically but not invoke the JVM shutdown hook?

Question

I use System.exit(), but it would always call the JVM shutdown hook. How can I shut down a Java process programmatically but not invoke the JVM shutdown hook ?

Just out of curiosity, what is your use case for this? – Lii Jun 02 '15 at 11:21 — Lii, Jun 02 '15 at 11:21
