How to make gradle run terminate if the underlying Java process is termianted?

I have a project where I apply the Gradle application plugin. My problem is that it doesn't terminate even if the underlying process terminates: if I run this:

gradle run

with a main which only contains a System.exit(0); the program terminates but Gradle doesn't. How do I force the Gradle process to terminate when the underlying Java program terminates?

Edit: I Know I can call gradle --stop but that would require another process and it is not an option.

kill the java process manually from cli. linux using killall java, windows using taskkill /f /im java.exe

for an example my script.cmd

@echo off

taskkill /f /im java.exe
call gradlew :app:assembleAarch64Release --no-daemon -Dorg.gradle.jvmargs="-Xmx1g -Xms300m"
taskkill /f /im java.exe
call gradlew :app:assembleArmRelease --no-daemon -Dorg.gradle.jvmargs="-Xmx1g -Xms300m"
taskkill /f /im java.exe
call gradlew :app:assembleX86Release --no-daemon -Dorg.gradle.jvmargs="-Xmx1g -Xms300m"
taskkill /f /im java.exe
call gradlew :app:assembleX86_64Release --no-daemon -Dorg.gradle.jvmargs="-Xmx1400m -Xms300m"
taskkill /f /im java.exe

it will kill java each finished task. to keep my pc performance

gradle run terminates when your application terminates. However, if you use gradle daemon (enabled by default in later versions), the daemon still prevails.

The easiest solution is to pass --no-daemon to the gradle CLI. You can also configure it in the properties.
