Run Geronimo as a Windows service out of box
--------------------------------------------
Key: GERONIMO-4394
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GERONIMO-4394
Project: Geronimo
Issue Type: New Feature
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: commands
Environment: Windows platforms
Reporter: Jack Cai
Although there is already an option provided by the Java Service Wrapper, some
users are more interested in seeing something similar to what is provided by
Tomcat. Provided that we can easily take the technology from Tomcat
(http://commons.apache.org/daemon/procrun.html), I'm keen to implement this
same thing for Geronimo. The advantage of using Apache Commons procrun is that -
1. Out-of-box experience, no need to download and install a third party
component;
2. Tray icon that further improves usability.
Eventually we would think to provide this "run as a service" capability for
Linux/Unix platforms, but Windows would be a good start.
