Disabling AppNap from java

[Andrew Thompson]

I've resisted posting this until now as it will probably just confuse the issue, but on this page you can find code which calls Objective C using both Rococoa and plain old JNI so you can compare and contrast. 

Of course the problem this is solving has nothing to do with AppNap and so it might be more distracting than anything else:

Unfortunately like most things this is a matter of experience. Having done this before I could probably knock something up in a couple of hours that would meet your needs. But if it's your first time it'll be trickier for you.
