Re: [DUG] basic Service question

[Dave O'Brien]

Something like this?

var
  Stopped: Boolean = false ;

procedure TsvcSomeService.ServiceExecute(Sender: TService);
var
  t: TDateTime ;
begin
  try
    t := now - 720 ;
    While (not terminated) and (not stopped) do
    begin
      if now > t + (1/1440) then // Run once a minute
      begin
        // Do something
        t := now ;
      End ;
      Sleep(1000) ; // Sleep to allow other services time...
    end ;
  except
  end ;
end;

procedure TsvcSomeService.ServiceStart(Sender: TService;
  var Started: Boolean);
begin
  Started := True ;
  Stopped := False ;
end;

procedure TsvcSomeService.ServiceStop(Sender: TService;
  var Stopped: Boolean);
begin
  Stopped := True ;
end;

procedure TsvcSomeService.ServiceCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  // Create some stuff
end;

procedure TsvcSomeService.ServiceShutdown(Sender: TService);
begin
  Stopped := True ;
end;

Hi

I am trying to create a service 9never done this before) and following
some old instructions I found on the web.  The suggest creating a
service then installing it with service.exe /install then adding code
and debuggin.  I am failing at the most basic point.  I am trying to
install on Vista from cmd line.  It just comes up with a 'program is not
responding message.

Any help would be appreciated :)
Rob
