#307 Allow running a second process

Can you explain a bit more what you are wanting to do? How is the second process triggered?

The Wrapper lets you launch managed child processes with the WrapperManager.exec method. Similar to the Runtime.exec, but you have more control over forking, and the Wrapper will manage the lifecycles of the child processes. It is also possible to trigger child processes in response to events. These are both Pro features however.

Allow running a second process

I'm looking for a way to allow my service to temporarily start a second process. For instance to have the process start with a specific command-line flag, --status for example. The process should start, and dump some status info and quit again.

Obviously the Wrapper does not allow this, since the main process is already running. Any idea how we could accomplish this?
