Description

Bugtraq ID 4980538

Adding a publicly accessible method that starts services and returns the service creation results would help programmatic users from having to roll their own main() equivalent.

Comments
---------------------
Additional thought needed to handle the potential for multiple invocations of this method from a program. The service starter was designed with a single invocation model. For example, the maintained list of transient references is created upon each invocation, which would allow previous references t become GC candidates.
