Thanks for trying.
Good. This shows that , in your environment too, eclipse will not close javaw.exe if an external handle is not terminated.

This is why I think JOGL is not closing a handle to a native call it's making, which it supposed to do.

I think, ATI type drivers may not close this resource unless the calling thread does. Other drivers seem to be doing this “somehow”.

Did you try to reproduce the issue by putting the JOGL code below into your main?
public static void main(String[] args) {
GLProfile glpMinimal = GLProfile.get(GLProfile.GL2);
}

gouessej - I will raise a bug - not sure how yet, but I will find out
