Perhaps I'm mistaken...what I meant was that if a JVM is running,
there isn't a way to set system properties that would normally be set
when launching a new process (JVM), since an in-process start of the
appserver doesn't create a new process. Is that an invalid
assumption eg is there a setSystemProperty() call somewhere?
I agree exec'ing another process is perfectly fine, and probably
won't dig up a can of other worms in trying to run Appserver in an
existing JVM; AppServer pretty much assumes it has a "clean slate"
when main() is called.
