Re: [Wrapper-user] questions about "Method 3 - WrapperListener Integration"

[Christian M. <chr...@ta...>]

Hello Hugo,

the JVM is running as long as there is a non daemon thread running inside
the JVM. It appears that when you return from the start() function that's
not the case, so the JVM is initiating the shutdown.

While the start function has to return in a given time, you can launch a
thread in there, which for instance calls your main method, starts your
app, etc.
For instance:

public Integer start(String[] arg0) {
    new java.lang.Thread(this).start();
    return null;
}

public void run() {
    /*
       invoke your application
    */
}



In most cases integration method #1 using the WrapperSimpleApp is the best
choice for running your application with the Java quite out of the box, so
if there is no immediate requirement for method #3, I'd recommend also
using integration method #1.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Thank you,
