programming a service for cygrunsrv (c, jni, rmi, servlet, tomcat)

[joel@weedlight.ch]

Hi, I wrote a program in C to launch rmiregistry and to start my RMI server. The
Program works fine but when I tried `cygrunsrv --install MvServer --path
/cygdrive/c/classes/MvServer/MvServer.exe` and finally `cygrunsrv -S MvServer`
the RMI server seems to be death. I don't get any error messages in the log.
Below is my entire code of MvServer.c written in C.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <pthread.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/wait.h>
#include <jni.h>

typedef struct _MvServer MvServer;

struct _MvServer{
  JavaVM *jvm;
  JNIEnv *env;
} server = {
  NULL, NULL
};

void* mv_server_rmi_thread(void *data);
void* mv_server_main_thread(void *data);
void mv_server_term_signal();

FILE *log_fd;

void*
mv_server_rmi_thread(void *data)
{
  execl("/cygdrive/c/Programme/Java/jdk1.6.0_13/bin/rmiregistry.exe\0", NULL);

  return(NULL);
}

void
mv_server_term_signal()
{
  jclass cls;
  jmethodID mid;
  jint rc;

  cls = (*(server.env))->FindClass((server.env), "MvServer\0");
  
  if(cls == 0){
    fprintf(log_fd, "couldn't invoke MvServer\n\0");
    fflush(log_fd);
    exit(0);
  }

  mid = (*(server.env))->GetStaticMethodID((server.env), cls, "shutdown\0",
"([Ljava/lang/String;)V\0");
  
  if(mid == 0){
    fprintf(log_fd, "couldn't get shutdown\n\0");
    fflush(log_fd);
    fclose(log_fd);
    exit(0);
  }else{
    (*(server.env))->CallStaticVoidMethod((server.env), cls, mid, 0);
    (*(server.jvm))->DestroyJavaVM((server.jvm));
  }
}
