[GROOVY-3963] GroovyConsole windows should be their own process

• Type: Bug
• Status: Closed
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Won't Fix
• Affects Version/s: 1.7.0
• Component/s: Groovy Console
• Environment: Tested on Windows XP
• Assignee: Unassigned

Description

The output is shared between GroovyConsole windows created from the same process, since requesting a new window doesn't create a new process.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open a new console window (ctrl + shift + n)
2. Cause some output to be generated
3. Observe output in original window

The output of that script will be displayed on all console windows created in the (ctrl + shift + n) way but not when it is launched as a new process. I believe the latter behavior to be preferable.
