. NET instance code for implementing interactive WINDOWS Services

I want to be a file monitoring service over the past few days. I have read many articles about WINDOWS services on the Internet. I only talked about how to make the most basic service, but it does not show how to interact with users. Check MSDN and see the description about the service:

Windows service applications run in a window area different from the login user's interaction area. The window area is a security object that contains the clipboard, a group of global atoms, and a group of desktop objects. Because the Windows Service region is not an Interactive region, the dialog box raised in the Windows service application is invisible and may cause the program to stop responding. Similarly, the error information should be recorded in the Windows event log, rather than in the user interface.

The Windows service class supported by. NET Framework does not support interaction with the interactive area (that is, the login user. At the same time,. NET Framework does not contain classes that represent regions and desktops. If the Windows Service must interact with other regions, you need to access the unmanaged Windows API.

That is to say, to implement interactive services (for example, if we want to set some parameters for the service at Runtime), we must use System. Runtime. InteropServices.

Let's take a look at how to implement an interactive service. The steps are the same as implementing basic services (you can refer to MSDN or google ).

When implementing OnStart, note that a FORM or something cannot be displayed here. There is no response to this. We can run a thread in this method. This thread needs to access window area objects or desktop objects. Of course, these are not provided in the framework, and they need to access unmanaged code.

Let's take a look at the code and try again.
