Not sure how relevant this is, but I do notice that the Direct Readout Lab
at NASA has packaged up their Real Time Satellite Telemetry Processing
System (RT-STPS) with jsw. It does appear that JSW will run things as a
service on Windows and linux platforms. Since I generally use RT-STPS in
batch mode I can't swear to how good/bad jsw is. But it does show that the
package has one high dollar client.
FWIW,

[Geoserver-devel] GeoServer as
04/16/2008 09:54 Windows service
AM
Hi all. I'd like to get everyone's thoughts on getting GeoServer to be
better integrated on the Windows platform. Currently, GeoServer is
started and stopped by command-line shortcuts accessed via the Start
Menu. A result of this is that as long as GS is running, there is a
persistent command line window. The window is handy for debugging, but
not good for much else. Closing that window shuts down GS. This is
sub-optimal, and can be improved.
I would like to see GS run as a service, like Tomcat or any other
program that is on without being launched. Being more tightly
integrated with the OS makes for better management (services are
familiar to a Windows SysAdmin) and a better user experience.
In the past, I've used srvany.exe to force a program to act as a
service, but that's a) a little cheesy and b) might have licensing
issues. I think we can do better. I have seen (but never used) a tool
called Java Service Wrapper (wrapper.tanukisoftware.org) which appears
to do exactly this. I would appreciate anyone's suggestions.
Thanks,
