Creating Windows Service

[xstreur]

Hello,

Is it possible to write create a windows service in FreeBasic. Could someone direct me to some example.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

It's definitely possible to write a service in FB.

Have a look at win/winsvc.bi
Some keyword to search for: OpenSCManager OpenService QueryServiceStatusEx ControlService EnumDependentServices

This said, I didn't saw much using Google regarding FreeBasic.
And I didn't wrote any service yet in FB but I wrote a couple using PowerBASIC.
There are some good examples there, and they should be not so hard to migrate.
