I read SO q&a about launch java as windows service wrappers, but can't find/choose product, suitable for my requirements :
Wrapper reads all java launch parameters from config file. In registry must be only commands to run wrapper itself - path to exe and maybe path to config. Always grant admin rights to change app parameters in registry is not comfortable.
Working dir and path to application also must be in config. I want to place all wrapper files deep into program, because user not intrested in it.
No dependencies(.net, python, etc). I don't want to extend requirements of my program.
Free for every windows OS, include win64.
Simple and lightweight. Size of my program with all 3rd party jars is 12Mbytes. I don't want to add 20Mbytes wrapper.
Automaticaly restart if app process dies.
Preferably single exe files for all windows platform.
I try and lookinkg throught different wrappers and tired a bit. Best suitable till now is:
Also i try or look throught:
Tell me please which wrappers suits my needs? Or maybe i think wrong about wrappers above and some of them suits my needs to?
I have had similar issues over the years. Its not that they all are inferior, its that they are all pretty hard to integrate nicely with your own project.
