Is there a simple way for a Java application to display/log the Windows PID 
that has been assigned to it?  I'm running on both Win2K and WinXP.

I have several Java apps, which all run in their own VM.  They are started 
in separate DOS command windows via a visual basic script.  If I look in 
Windows Task Manager, I see XX number of "java.exe" processes, but currently 
find it hard to identify which is which...

I expect this startup procedure will change in the future....however in the 
short term, is there a way that each application can print/log its PID to 
the console...i.e. perhaps using a System.* or Runtime.* method call? 
(adding to the command window's title bar would be even better)...

Thanks,

F. Maurais
