Recommended Posts

Hello

im not really sure doing write way . let me know if there is other better way to to do it serviceex.exe is application which install non gui application as service . need code optimization :)

Func _ServiceInstall($ServiceExE = "serviceex.exe", $ServiceName = "_test", $ServiceParm = "install")
    Local $SvExPid = Run(@ComSpec & " /c " & $ServiceExE & " " & $ServiceParm & " " & $ServiceName, @ScriptDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDERR_CHILD + $STDOUT_CHILD)
    If $SvExPid Then ProcessWaitClose($SvExPid)
    Local $CmdLineRead = StdoutRead($SvExPid)
    Local $aArray = StringSplit(StringTrimRight(StringStripCR($CmdLineRead), StringLen(@LF)), @LF) ;_ArrayDisplay($aArray)
    If Not @error Then
        If $aArray[7] == "Install service succeeded." Or $aArray[6] == "Couldn't create service! Perhaps it is already installed." Then
            Return True
        EndIf
    EndIf
    Return False
EndFunc ;==>_ServiceInstall

Usually if you want to read from the STDOut stream it is usually wise to run it through a loop, there is no telling how long before it outputs data but sometimes can take a while.

Take a look at "SC" from the cmd.exe it has helped me alot when creating services for programs.

Usage:

SC Create "service name" binPath= "app_path" start= "auto"

You don't have to read the STDOUT stream in a loop. There was a post a few weeks ago that you could run a program and read the STDOUT stream in one go.

If I find the thread I will post the link.
