JBE reports an exit code of 1 but doesn't actually seem to return that

 I have a script that is executing the JBE, and JBE is reporting an error and a return code of 1, but the script does not pick up on a exit code of 1, rather is appears to return a 0.  What is happening here?

 This is a defect that has been entered as:

The problem is JBE is built on Eclipse, and if Eclipse exits with a non-zero exit code, Eclipse will dump lots of diagnostic data, and it would clutter the log unnecessarily.  Making JBE always return a zero exit code makes it so the diagnostic data is withheld.  The defect will deal with making this exit code determination more sophisticated.
