Hi,
Here i want to explain a simple window service which logs the data on text file for every start and stop operations of service.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Diagnostics;
using System.Linq;
using System.ServiceProcess;
using System.Text;
using System.IO;
using System.Net.Mail;
using System.Timers;
namespace PracticeService
{
public partial class Service1 : ServiceBase
{
FileStream fs = new FileStream(@"D:\Practive\Servicelogs\CabRequestServicelog.txt", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write);
public Service1()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
WriteLog("Cab Request Service started");
}
protected override void OnStop()
{
WriteLog("Cab Request Service Stopped");
}
public void WriteLog(string data)
{
StreamWriter m_streamWriter = new StreamWriter(fs);
m_streamWriter.BaseStream.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.End);
m_streamWriter.WriteLine(data);
m_streamWriter.Flush();
m_streamWriter.Close();
}
}
}
So once window service is done using window service template in VSS 2008
no we need to deploy this service using intallutill.exe.
