Play framework 2.4 scala REPL hangs on exit

I try to use REPL for testing/debugging of my play framework application. I am playing with 2.4 version of Play. When I try to execute ":quit" on exit the application, after I called "new GuiceApplicationBuilder", the REPL hangs. Even if the GuiceApplicationBuilder failed with an exception.

Ctrl+C exits from activator completely, what I want to escape, because starting of activator is a little bi time consuming, when I try to do some small stuff with my application.

I suppose I must shutdown something before exiting, but couldn't figure what and how.

Thanks!

Try to say

play.api.Play.stop()

before quitting the console. It helps if the application is started with

new play.core.StaticApplication(new java.io.File("."))
