The new procrun looks professional.
It's been cooking for over a year and I've tried to do my best :)
It seems really good
quality overall (I do have a bad feeling about Win9x). The log viewer
is gone though.
Win9x is not supported (lack of interest and test platform).
Since procrun now consist of two parts (lib and applications) it wouldn't be
a problem to support that.
But I'm +0 on supporting Win9x cause it's a NT kind of a application.
Log viewer is gone, cause it was not local language independent, and it
required additional sources in j-t-c.
Now there is only monitor (like ApacheMonitor), that can be used to monitor
the service.
Perhaps like in Apache2 it should be run at startup.
The major change is in configuration GUI that now supports all the
configurable options, and in the fact that the java.exe is not needed any
more.
There are two additional apps (apsvcmgr for monitoring all the services with
the options to filter particular services) and jar2exe that can make an .exe
from .jar file. I was able to run the entire Tomcat from single .exe
(although the usability of such application is questionable :).
Few things remains (mostly cosmetic) open, like shutting down monitor when
the service is deleted (for uninstall purposes) etc.
Also I've changed the installation to use the jvm from detected JAVA_HOME
(not the default one set in registry) so it should finally act the same way
as started from startup.bat
Further more the binaries now reflects the service name, so just double
clicking on the application will call the default action (running in debug
mode and configuration editing).
