With the ASF Tomcat in bin directory you can use the service.bat script that allows one to customize the tomcat server instance with configurations we'd need for it to run as a service (i.e JVM settings, environment variables, etc).

With tcServer, while it's straightforward to install multiple instances as windows services, i'm not sure how to set additional variables like the use of the environmental arguments with tcServer's SpringSource layout. Is that even possible or one has to use the ASF layout to achieve that?

Thx.
