Just to add: I'm using JDK 1.5 Thank you for your very prompt replies... There's one additional question that I had ... I was initially running tomcat with the -Xrs JVM flag... but if I try to take a thread dump, the Tomcat process crashes and I get nothing... if I remove the VM flag, I can take a thread dump successfully and the app continues to run...
This makes sense given that according http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/tooldocs/windows/java.html#options Sun's documentation Ctrl + Break thread dumps are not available with the -Xrs flag turned on... and given what's mentioned http://www.latenighthacking.com/projects/2003/sendSignal/ here and http://www.adaptj.com/main/tracehowtos#ht0 here the process exiting on a Ctrl + Break is the expected behavior when -Xrs is specified as a JVM option. My question is: - what are the implications of removing the -Xrs flag.. - why would the flag be enabled for a webapp running as a service? What benefits if any does it provide?
