trap jvm kill signal

[sai krishna]

Hi All,

Is there a way to trap kill signals in java applications? when an
external kill signal is sent to a java process, how can we trap the
signal. i want to use this handler to gracefully close the application

However if the OP really means SIGKILL (9) on a Unix (-like) system,
then no process can trap that specific signal, regardless of
programming language.
