Add Windows Services

How do I use NSIS to add a service in Windows Services in order to start up an application automactically when window startup?

Does anyone have ins file of Apache Tomcat 5?

Thanks

That's a big question 🙂
It depends on what you want to do.

Making a Java program into a service for example use

If you have money to spend you can get your installer to use the commandline interface for this: http://www.firedaemon.com/.

And don't forget there are built-in Windows commands for creating services from binaries, but I'm not the best person to ask about that.

Actually I copy entire TOMCAT folder to the other machine, so that I want to create a windows service that startup tomcat5.exe in {tomcat_home}\bin, it is in order to start up tomcat server automatically when window start up

is there any source that i can look at?
