Running the framework as a service/daemon #293

Maybe using Apache Commons Daemon: 
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-daemon/

Advantages would include:
 - ability to properly shut down when system shuts down
 - automatically restart the framework if it crashes
 - client applications wouldn't need to know where the framework is installed to be able to start it; you could install the CLI or the Web UI separately if you wanted to

What do you think?

Sounds like a good idea. Are there any limitations that would affect us? I 
suppose we would still maintain what we have now, for the users who aren't 
running apache.

I didn't have too close a look at Apache Commons Daemon but I don't think you 
need to run an Apache server to use it. The idea would be to run the framework 
as a native Windows/OSX/Linux service/daemon without any dependencies besides 
Java.
