Service Applications Foundation

This chapter provides information on how to implement services in Xbase++.

Services are a special kind of applications that may be invoked automatically by the operating system when it boots. Services are therefore suitable for implementing Server Applications, such as Web Servers or Database Servers, that may run unattended on Windows versions capable of running service applications, like Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP.

Controlling services
