The service launcher (tomcat5.exe) has more control over the operation of the JVM than the standard launcher (java.exe) does. I have no idea whether or not the service launcher makes use of that control. For system properties, you can use the tomcat5w.exe utility to set or examine the ones in use with the service. Note that this utility also has a provision for setting the working directory, although Tomcat itself makes no use of that. How is Cobertura supposed to get control during Tomcat termination? If it's using a lifetime listener as defined in the servlet spec, that should function the same regardless of whether Tomcat is run from the command prompt or as a service. If Cobertura is relying on some other mechanism (e.g., System.runFinalization() or System.runFinalizersOnExit()), that can be problematic, since there's no guarantee it will ever actually occur. - Chuck THIS COMMUNICATION MAY CONTAIN CONFIDENTIAL AND/OR OTHERWISE PROPRIETARY MATERIAL and is thus for use only by the intended recipient.
