RE: wanting to use Win32::ODBC in a service

Title: Message
You may want to also look at SRVANY. This is a Windows RSK Tool that controls a stand-alone executable and let it run in the background as a service.  I've successfully used PerlApp to compile a perl script with Win32:odbc. 
 
I've used both SQL Select and SQL Update logic within the compiled perl executable. This script runs in the background as an emulated service via SRVANY.
 
SRVANY doesn't have all the controls over the executable as a normal service, such as pause and stopping execution of the executable when the service stops.   To stop the executable, you need to kill the process.  There are cmd line tools that allow this that are better than Windows TaskMan.  
 
Depending on what your looking for, SRVANY may provide what you need.

Subject: wanting to use Win32::ODBC in a service


All,  I have a script/service that was using the Oracle DBI, and I want to convert it over to using an ODBC connection. I got the script to compile as a svc. then when I started it, it fired correctly, but the service would not stay running while using the  Win32::ODBC, I am begining to wonder if that is even possible? also I am new to this group, can someone point me to some examples that may be posted somewhere?   Thanks
