About Services
The Service Control Manager (SCM) maintains a database of installed services and driver services, and
provides a unified and secure means of controlling them. The database includes
information on how each service or driver service should be started. It also
enables system administrators to customize security requirements for each service
and thereby control access to the service.
Three types of programs use the functions provided by the SCM:
Type
| Description
| Service Programs
| A program that provides executable code for one or more services. Service
programs use functions that connect to the SCM and send status information to the
SCM.
| Service Configuration Program
| A program that queries or modifies the services database. Service
configuration programs use functions that open the database, install or delete services in
the database, and query or modify the configuration and security parameters for
installed services. Service configuration programs manage both services and
driver services.
| Service Control Program
| A program that starts and controls services and driver services. Service
control programs use functions that send requests to the SCM, which carries out the
request.

Nostalgia .Net offers several simple-to-use classes, and components that will allow you to forget about the headache of Win32 and just use the power of Win32 in your application the same way as you use the native. Net classes. More » |
