When the service application is running in the debugger, this class method is calling the method :main() explicitly. This way it is possible to debug a service application.
Method ServiceApp():start() Foundation
This class method starts the service process.
Syntax
:start() --> self
Return
The class method returns the class object.
Description
When this class method is called the service process starts. Usually this class method is executed in the PROCEDURE Main of the application implementing the service. As a result the callback code block assigned to :main or the method :main() are executed by the system implicitly.
The class method returns when two conditions are met: the service has finished its :main() callback and the service has received the Stop control request.
