 How about System.Environment.Exit()?

+I also used the sleep trick. That worked fine, until I ran on an RH8 
+machine in single-CPU mode. It looked like the calling thread was 
+simply sleeping, and then, once the (2 second) sleep completed, Exit
+() went on its merry way as usual.
+
+I've changed the code to fork a new process that does 
+a "/usr/bin/kill -s 9 <mypid>". This works, but isn't very elegant. 
+I'd like to use platform invoke instead to call the kill() system 
+call directly. Is this possible? Which library do I need for the 
+DllImport directive?
+
+One other question: in general, when I want to use platform invoke, 
+it's not always obvious in which library I can find the entry point. 
+Is there any way to find out?
