Re: [Wrapper-user] No args wrapper startup

[Leif M. <le...@ta...>]

Jim,
    What is wrong with having your users double click on a batch file?  
That is what most
Java applications do and what you would have to do if not using the 
Wrapper.  Making
the Wrapper work without any command line arguments would require 
building a custom
binary for each application.  That is how some other tools worked which 
allowed a java
app to be run as an NT service.  One of the many goals of the Wrapper 
was to make the
Wrapper usable without requiring the user to even get close to any C code.

    Cheers,
    Leif
