Starting an external app before exiting

I know this is a pretty newbie question but is it possible for me to start an external application then exit my java application ? But the application I hav started should remain running until it exits on its own.

AFAIK external processes started using the ProcessBuilder class run independently of what you do with your Java app once they are started.
