Orlando .NET Code Camp | 2009

Windows Services are becoming more important to applications. With .NET, they can be built by any developer, not just someone knowledgeable about C++. A Windows Service is an application that runs in the background and does not require a user to be logged into the computer. This session will cover what a Windows Service is and some examples of usage, the sections and code needed for creating and/or maintaining a Windows Service, how to communicate with other applications and some general tips for designing and building your own Windows Service. Two different install methods will also be covered.
