Windows Service Stop

[NM]

Hi,

I'd like to know if it is possible to stop (within the code) a windows
service just after a business exception has been thrown...

TIA.

Hi,

You are not telling us what language you are using, so i will just give you
a general solution:

net stop <serviceNameHere>

For more information, write: "net stop /?" in a cmd prompt. You can probably
use this from your code in one or another way.

Hi,

This is one way to do it:

--- Code snippet ---

System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController sc = new
System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController("my Service Name");
sc.Stop();

--- End Code Snippet ---

I do not know if there's another way to do it, so i suggest that you ask in
public.dotnet.languages.csharp if you do not think this is the best
solution.

For more information, please look at the ServiceController class in MSDN

Hope this helps!
