After looking closer at the patch I notice a couple of issues:
1. Does it make sense to set the thread as a daemon? I don't think
frameworks are required to have non-daemon threads...we would have
to think about it.
Personally I don't understand why there is another thread? What's
the point to it? Can't you just detect that stdin is not valid and
just handle things in the same thread?
Yes, you could just detect whether stdin is invalid first, but you
would need a thread if stdin is valid. Is there a proper way to
determine if stdin is valid?
Hmmm this behavoir is truly unexpected since jsvc does some strange
things to daemonize the process. I don't really know how this would
manifest itself in the Java space. Basically the stdin file descriptor
is closed in which case the String line will return null all the time
(just a suspicion from looking at the code and the observed behavoir).
I think rigging in the ability to switch the profile and the
configuration file when not in debug mode is the key.
