Hi Dan,
check the latter half of this on how to create a simple service setup
project.
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/si...owsservice.asp
The final thing I need now is to be able to provide a description for my
service which displays in the Services MMC snap-in.
According to this article
http://www.codeproject.com/dotnet/do...escription.asp, this property
was omitted from the ServiceProcessInstaller object in the .NET Framework.
The article goes on to say that the only way of adding a description is to
write it directly into the Registry.
This article
http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/CS...erviceInst.asp
suggests a way of achieving this via the AfterInstall event of the
ProjectInstaller object.
I'd be interested to know if this is the only way to do this, or if there is
a better way.
Any assistance gratefully received.
Mark
