Method ServiceApp():stop() Foundation
Service received "stop" control request.
:stop() --> selfThe class method :stop() returns the class object.
This callback is executed when a "stop" request is sent by a service control application. The service's state then changes to "stopped" and the service is required to terminate its execution in its class method :main().
The :stop() callback method is mandatory and must be used to implement suitable behavior for stopping the task performed by the service. To do this, the method must be overwritten in a user-defined class derived from ServiceApp and has to signal the code executing in the :main() callback to terminate, for example, by setting an internal flag value.
