Gary Dusbabek commented on CASSANDRA-292:
-----------------------------------------
The last time I dealt with making java a service on windows, the Java Service
Wrapper was the best service wrapper available. Procrun
(http://commons.apache.org/daemon/procrun.html) is probably worth looking at
too.
Since these are windows users, we probably want to provide an installer that
manages all these things as well. Jeremy is right, wix is probably the best
tool for that.
> Cassandra should be runnable as a Windows service and distribute a Windows
> installer
