Java Service Wrapper

Over the past few months I have been using the very excellent eXist XML database available under the GNU LGPL on a project to store and query TEI encoded documents. eXist is run stand-alone using the supplied Jetty servlet engine. One of the things I've been casting about for was a way to start eXist as a service on 2003 Server rather than the default method of running it from a console window. The present eXist beta now points the way to achieving this using Tanuki's Java Service Wrapper This is definitely high on my agenda for Monday - the support calls can wait a little longer
