Hello,

I have a JAva program that runs all day long mimicking daemons.  IT
calls Thread.sleep between each iteration.  I am running it on an NT
server.

Eerything is wrapped in try / catch block...however the program will
sometimes quit.  It will not throw an exception, or give any kind of
JVM error.  Its as if somerthing wiped it out of memory.  Here are the
exact 3 lines of code:

log("sleeping");
Thread.sleep(30000);
log("woke up");

I was thinking that it somehow did not wake up, but I see no trace of
java.exe in the task manager when it quits.  I found out through my
research that a java process might sleep and never wake up if the
system time is adjusted during its sleep.  However, I don't belieeve
this is happening b/c I don't have a dead java.exe process in the task
manager.

Another hint I recieved was that if someone logs onto the server, and
than logs off, it may send the java.exe a signal to shutdown...which
can be avoided with -XRS command line option.  However, I can not
recreate this scenario...

Anyone know what might be going on?

Thanks,
eF.
