What is the JSL?

Please note that there is a patch release available: For details see change log

The Java Service Launcher is a small executable to start JAVA-programs as a Service under 32bit versions of Windows NT 4, Windows 2000, Windows 2003 and XP. I have not tested it under Vista yet, but I suppose it works. 64bit versions of Java are not supported yet. JSL is NOT a JVM. It's but a utility like javap, javac or javah which will launch a Java application through an installed JVM.

As the way to do this has been standardized by Sun since JDK 1.2 the JSL is fairly universal and should be able to use any JVM from 1.2 onward, including JVMs from other vendors like IBM and JRockit. For supported JVMs and Windows operating systems see Current Release, for new feature and changes see Change log.
