Windows service installation (C #)

1. Create a Service Project

For example

Using system;
Using system. collections;
Using system. componentmodel;
Using system. Data;
Using system. diagnostics;
Using system. serviceprocess;
Using system. Threading;
Using system. Windows. forms;
Namespace catcharticle
{
Public class catcharticle: system. serviceprocess. servicebase
{
/// <Summary>
/// Required designer variables.
/// </Summary>
Private system. componentmodel. Container components = NULL;
Private thread mainthread;
Public catcharticle ()
{
// This call is required by the windows. Forms component designer.
Initializecomponent ();

Mainthread = new thread (New threadstart (threadfunc ));
Mainthread. Priority = threadpriority. Lowest;
}

// Master entry point of the process
Static void main ()
{
System. serviceprocess. servicebase [] servicestorun;
Servicestorun = new system. serviceprocess. servicebase [] {New catcharticle ()};
System. serviceprocess. servicebase. Run (servicestorun );
}

/// <Summary>
/// The designer supports the required methods-do not use the code editor
/// Modify the content of this method.
/// </Summary>
Private void initializecomponent ()
{
Components = new system. componentmodel. Container ();
This. servicename = "catcharticle ";
}

/// <Summary>
/// Clear all resources in use.
/// </Summary>
Protected override void dispose (bool disposing)
{
If (disposing)
{
If (components! = NULL)
{
Components. Dispose ();
}
}
Base. Dispose (disposing );
}

/// <Summary>
/// Set specific operations so that the service can perform its work.
/// </Summary>
Protected override void onstart (string [] ARGs)
{
Mainthread. Start ();
}
 
/// <Summary>
/// Stop the service.
/// </Summary>
Protected override void onstop ()
{
Mainthread. Abort ();
}

Public static void threadfunc ()
{
Int lasthour = datetime. Now. hour;
While (true)
{
System. Threading. thread. Sleep (1000 );
If (datetime. Now. Hour-1 = lasthour)
{
MessageBox. Show ("to take good care of your eyes, please take a 5-minute break and look into the distance! "," Warning ", messageboxbuttons. OK, messageboxicon. Warning, messageboxdefaultbutton. button1, messageboxoptions. defaulttoptoponly );
Lasthour = datetime. Now. hour;
}
}
}

}
}

 

==========================================================

2. Add a project install. CS inherited from the installer. Some parameters can be defined by yourself.

Using system. collections;
Using system. configuration. Install;
Using system. serviceprocess;
Using system. componentmodel;

Namespace catcharticle
{
/// <Summary>
/// Summary of myinstall.
/// </Summary>
///
[Runinstaller (true)]
Public class myinstall: Installer
{

Private serviceinstaller;
Private serviceprocessinstaller processinstaller;
Public myinstall ()
{
Processinstaller = new serviceprocessinstaller ();
Serviceinstaller = new serviceinstaller ();

Processinstaller. Account = serviceaccount. LocalSystem;
Serviceinstaller. starttype = servicestartmode. Automatic;
Serviceinstaller. servicename = "catcharticle ";

Installers. Add (serviceinstaller );
Installers. Add (processinstaller );
}
}
}

 

 

3. Use release

4. Use c: \... \ framework \ v1.1.. \ installutil.exe c: \ Project path \ bin \ release \ testservice.exe

 

NOTE: If projectinstall. CS is not added, the following error is reported:
