Re: [Wrapper-user] Running wrapper in console mode with elevated priviledges

[Alexandros K. <al...@kr...>]

Thanks Christian,

I look forward to getting this configuration property. The solution you mentioned is known to me but i need to have this done programmatically or ask the users of my application to do it which is not ideal. 

I am also waiting for the following in the next release: 

A. New log level that prints only java application output
B. Creating wrapperW custom binaries in 'silent mode' (without a popup)

Any ideas when the next release will be ready?

Thanks,
