Re: [Wrapper-user] Service and GUI

[Juan S. <jsa...@pu...>]

you say a System Tray Icon ? I did one with the Wrapper, but it is not a 
issue of Wrapper. In your Java code (at the begining of your main class) 
you have to invoke the SystemTray class (find in google examples) and in 
the Wrapper you have to configure to Auto_Start and when you install the 
service and restart the PC you can see the Icon in the task bar with the 
menus you configured.
It´s important to say that when the PC have too much process to load 
(too many icons in task bar) sometimes the icon of your service doesn´t 
appear. but the service is running. It is a Windows problem. It is not a 
problem of Java non Wrapper.
I hope helped you, bye
