Service

The following parameters applies only if you are creating a Win32 service:

• Service name. The service name which appears in Services when installed. This field is required.
• Startup type. Whether the startup type of the service is automatic or manual.
• Run as service only. Whether the generated EXE will run in service mode only. Checking this options disallows user execution of the program. It also implies that the generated EXE will not run on Win9x/ME machines.
• Allow service to interact with desktop. Whether the service is allowed to interact with the desktop of the current user.
• Service description. The service description which appears in Services when installed.
• Install command. Command used to install the service. By default, this is ‑install.
• Uninstall command. Command used to uninstall the service. By default, this is ‑uninstall.
• Allow customization of service via command line arguments. Whether the service name, description and startup type can be modified at install time via command line arguments. If this checkbox is selected, you have the option of customizing the service at install time using:
  
  

  service.exe -install [name] [desc] [start type (0|1)]

  where "0" means manual and "1" means automatic (default).
  
  Note that if you supply a custom name for the service during installation, then you need to supply the same name during uninstall:
  
  

  service.exe -uninstall [name]

• Start argument(s). The argument(s) to pass to the main() method when starting the program in service mode.
• Stop argument(s). The argument(s) to pass to the main() method when stopping the program in service mode.
• Call System.exit() to stop service. Instead of calling main() to stop the service, call System.exit() instead. Any termination logic that the program registers via Runtime.addShutdownHook() will be called before the JVM terminates.
• Service dependencies. Enter a list of services that this service is dependent on. Multiple entries are delimited by semi-colon. When the service is installed, this information will be written into the system. Leave this field blank if the service is not dependent on other services.
