Hi,
I have windows service, in the event of an exception calling (which is
important enough to write away to a customer event log) i would like to
write away the software version as part of the evenetlog message text.
I have used the following code with existing windows forms applications
System.Diagnost ics.FileVersion Info.GetVersion Info(System.Ref lection.Assembl y
..GetExecutingA ssembly.Locatio n).FileVersion ;
but am unable to use it in a windows service due to the following compiler
error.
'System.Reflect ion.Assembly.Ge tExecutingAssem bly()' denotes a 'method'
which is not valid in the given context
So how do i accomplish this in a windows service and is it the best method
anyway.

Tim,
Can you post the code? There should be no reason you get this error
because of the type of project it is in. It looks like a syntax error, to
say the least.

Aren't you missing a set of parenthesis after GetExecutingAss embly?
System.Diagnost ics.FileVersion Info.GetVersion Info(System.Ref lection.Assembl y.GetExecutingA ssembly().Locat ion).FileVersio n ;

that there is an option "Start parameters" text box in
the property of a Windows Service in MMC. Is there any
way to get arguments using this option? If possible, what

Thanks in advance.

I'm really starting to hate writing services -- or trying to, anyway.
Why do I need to rename my project to the service name?
Why do I need to set the "ServiceName" property to my service name?
Why do I need to set a property within my code to the service name?
Are all these required or am I just doing this for consistency purposes?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
