appdomain close console without kill main process

hi i need direction how to close appdomain console application without kill main process?

i create appdomain like this.

AppDomain testApp = AppDomain.CreateDomain("testApp");
try
{
    string[] args = new string[] { };
    string path = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("testApp");

    testApp.ExecuteAssembly(path, new System.Security.Policy.Evidence(), args);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
    //Catch process here
}
finally
{
    AppDomain.Unload(testApp);
}

"testApp" was console application, and when I close that console, main application that call AppDomain closing.

*Edit I execute code above on main application, let's say "MyApplication". When code above executed, its runs "testApp" and console windows show up. My problem is when i close "testApp" console windows, "MyApplication" process is closing.

It could be that the assembly your AppDomain is calling is ending prematurely (Environment.Exit(1), etc.).

What you can do is to subscribe to the AppDomain's event -- ProcessExit.

namespace _17036954
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            AppDomain testApp = AppDomain.CreateDomain("testApp");
            try
            {
                args = new string[] { };
                string path = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("testApp");

                //subscribe to ProcessExit before executing the assembly
                testApp.ProcessExit += (sender, e) =>
                {
                    //do nothing or do anything
                    Console.WriteLine("The appdomain ended");
                    Console.WriteLine("Press any key to end this program");
                    Console.ReadKey();
                };

                testApp.ExecuteAssembly(path);
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                //Catch process here
            }
            finally
            {
                AppDomain.Unload(testApp);
            }
        }
    }
}
