In the shell script, you can get the process id of the process last started IN
THE BACKGROUND.
It is a shell variable.
In ksh the variable is $!.
The idea is to write this value into a file associated with your application.
Something like:
java myclass &
echo $! > myclass.pid
Now the file myclass.pid has the pid of the java process.
Hope this helps,
Mike
