Product Features

You can install your Java Application as a UNIX Daemon without additional development from your part. The tools we provide allow you to install it in several UNIX and Linux flavors.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to capture all the output from your Java Application. This makes easier to troubleshoot and provide better support to your customers.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to change the working directory, which is the base location for all relative paths referenced in the Wrapper configuration file or within your application. Changing the working directory can be useful to simplify relative paths or to make it constant for your Java application, regardless of the location of your JAR files and Wrapper binaries.

The Java Service Wrapper can enforce that your Java Application only has one instance to run at any point of time.

The Java Service Wrapper allows to trigger JVM shutdowns and restarts by your Java Application or by an event. You can also get thread dumps when required for easier debugging or to provide better support for your customers.

The Java Service Wrapper is available in English, Japanese and German .

Depending on the OS, the JVM version or its implementation, the default encoding used in the Java code or for the standard I/O streams can be resolved to different values. The Java Service Wrapper offers a simple, yet efficient way to ensure that your application will always use the same encoding for all JVMs. It also performs several types of verification, such as checking the encoding availability and confirming compatibility with the current language and platform, which prevent the application from starting if the encoding is known to cause issues.

The Java Service Wrapper can automatically map network drives when running as a Windows Service.

The Java Service Wrapper has the ability to allocate memory to your Java Application using percentage values.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to change the default Windows icon from our product for better branding when you bundle it with your Java Application.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to automatically focus a window of your application instead of launching a second instance if you specify the single invocation mode. You may also perform custom actions by handling an event triggered each time a second instance is launched.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to change the timezone for events and logging for easier administration and scheduling.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to schedule events or run actions according to events happening in the JVM.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to execute external commands in response to certain events.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to create a child process using alternate methods to minimize memory consumptions.

The Java Service Wrapper allows to configure processor affinity for its underlying process as well as the controlled JVM process.

The Java Service Wrapper allows you to configure privileges during installation of a Windows service and then adjust them at runtime for the Wrapper process, Java process, and event commands.
