Procrun is a set of applications that allow Windows users to wrap (mostly) Java applications (e.g. Tomcat) as a Windows service.

The service can be set to automatically start when the machine boots and will continue to run with no user logged onto the machine.

Procrun comprises 2 applications:

  1. Prunmgr is a GUI application for monitoring and configuring procrun services.
  2. Prunsrv is a service application for running applications as services. It can convert any application (not just Java applications) to run as a service.
