nice does not seem to change the outcome. It only changes the
priority of the process. When it runs, it still places fop in the
foreground. Here is what I have tried:
nice /Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf &
nice -n 20 /Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/
$state.pdf &
I have also added & at the command line:
./createPDF.sh &
Any other options?

Use 'nice' to run it. Alter the script so that the fop execution
looks like:
nice /Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf
You can check the man page for nice for more info.

This is not a huge matter. More on the line of an annoyance. And I
may need to take this question to a java list rather than this

At any rate, I have an XSLT stylesheet that produces 50+ separate
fo documents. I then run the shell script below to batch produce
the pdf documents:
#!/bin/sh
for foo in *.fo
do
state=`basename $foo .fo`
/Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf
done
When I run this script on my Mac (OS X 10.4.11, java version
"1.5.0_13" fop-0.94), org.apache.fop.cli.main takes control of the
desktop, stopping whatever it is I am doing for about 5 seconds. I
gain control again for about 5 seconds until fop pumps out another
pdf document. I basically have to step away from the computer for
the 8 minutes that the batch process takes. Adding & and wait to
the main line of the script does not seem to work:
/Applications/fop-0.94/fop -fo $foo -pdf ../pdf_files/$state.pdf &
wait
done
The first script above on Ubuntu linux runs in the background
without interrupting other running process.
Any simple solutions?
