I fixed it like this: -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. create a JNI util dll for windows with one call: BOOL WINAPI ConsoleCtrlHandler(DWORD dwCtrlType) { if (dwCtrlType == CTRL_LOGOFF_EVENT) return TRUE; // ignore this signal and don't pass it on return FALSE; // pass it on } JNIEXPORT void JNICALL Java_xxx_setConsoleCtrlHandler(JNIEnv *env, jclass jcl) { SetConsoleCtrlHandler(ConsoleCtrlHandler, TRUE); return; } -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. load this native library in my app's init() 2.a System.loadLibrary(name); to do this: add -Djava.library.path option to your startup 2.b set the handler using the JNI call: FOO.jniSetConsoleCtrlHandler(); -------------------------------------------------------------------------- View the original post : http://www.jboss.com/index.html?module=bb&op=viewtopic&p=4030248#...
