Running program as service
- Thread starter slashtmp
- Start date
If you are using VS.NET then you have everything there to an elegant implementation of what you want.
First you start by creating a Windows Service application using the template or you can do that programmatically.
To check for running tasks , there is the Process class.
You have there everything for setup and deployment.
Use the .exe.config file to pass the list of tasks to watch by implementing a watcher thread on this file (see FileSystemWatcher class) without stop/start of the service.
