Can Java catch signals ?

Could the Java Native Interface be used to help Java catch signals ?

* prelim design in my head *
I have a huge script that run configurable batch jobs sequently over several hours.
I would like to rewrite the damn thing in Java, so that I could write module
to display dynamic status on the web via a browser. The only problem is that
java does not handle system interrupts or external stimuli well enough.

It does not have to be 100% Java. It will have to work on Solaris 2.5+ boxes though
Any ideas appreciated.


Have a FuNkiNG good time
