Problem
I have a simple java program which is just a single piece of code that reads from a database and modifies the contents of the database based on certain conditions. Now, what I want is that this program should start automatically at the startup and silently run in the background unless someone kills it from the task manager. I have never done something like this before and don't know exactly how to go about it. Can someone help me out as to how this can be done? Thank you..
