1. Services can run without an interactive (logged-in) user, so services which allow interaction need to be configured as such. So, open the Services control applet, and goto the properties of your service and ensure that "Allow service to interact with the desktop" is selected.
2. You should read up on remoting and communicate with your service in this way.

Interaction with desktop is allowed.

I know that windows service shoudn't have user interface.
Do you think that using .NET Remoting to comunicate with service is better than include management form inside service?
But the question was why my context menu isn't working. And why events such as double-click aren't catched.
And what about creating window in another thread inside service?

Maybe the reason why it isn't working is that Windows Service does not have classic Message Loop as Windows Applications have.
I currently solved my problem in, let's say - no professional way.
I created Window in a different thread:
public partial class Server : ServiceBase
{
MainForm window;
Thread thread;
public Server()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
{
thread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(WindowFunction));
thread.Start();
}
protected override void OnStop()
{
}
private void WindowFunction()
{
Application.Run(window = new MainForm());
}
}
but is it really the best solution?

Like others have said before, the usual way to do something like this is to have the service running without desktop access and to have a controller-type application that's communicating with the service, for example by using remoting.

I have made an application where the user may set the Desktop Wallpaper.
Using the method:
WinAPI.SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER, 1, fileName, SPIF_SENDCHANGE);
everything works fine, until I restart the computer.
How do I make the new wallpaper survice a computer restart ??
|
|
|
|
|
try this:
private const int SPIF_SENDWININICHANGE = 0x2;<br />
private const int SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE = 0x1;<br />
<br />
WinAPI.SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER, 1, fileName, SENDWININICHANGE ||SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE);
I am pretty sure this is what I am using for my Desktop Radnomizer program that I wrote.

I am facing a problem in Date format in our project. This problem exists only for the month of March.
Our client machine,server machin and DB server machine are in German OS.
In German language, the name of the month for March is 'MÄRZ' (which contains a spl character 'Ä'). The middle tyre of our project will support only the date format 'dd-MMM-yyyy' , example 25-Jan-05. While converting the date of month March in .NET, it is not understanding the spl character and convert the month as 'Mrz', for example
'25-Mrz-05'. But Oracle and SQL Server can understand only MÄR and not Mrz. So, in the month of march we are getting so many exceptions in our project.
We got a temprary soluntion in SQLServer. But we yet to find a solution in Oracle. Kindly help me to resolve this.![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)

Hi!
The problem is not that the 'ä' is "not understood" by .NET while converting the month, it's just that the short 3-letter form .NET uses for march in German is "Mrz".
Although I must admit that I've never tried to feed localized dates to SQLServer (or Oracle), it's hard to believe that the DB systems are choking on this because "Mrz" is a very common abbreviation for März here in Germany, even though it's the only one not taking the first 3 letters of the month's name.

mav

Where does the date come from, and how do you convert it?
Why do you handle the date as a string, and not as a DateTime?

b { font-weight: normal; }

Hi Guffa,
The date come from my date picker control.I am not handling as a string.
The middle tyre of my project should support only the format dd-MMM-yyyy.
So, i am converting whatever the date i selected in date picker control to the above said format.
With Love
Siva.

If you don't handle the date as a string, it doesn't have a format. A date value only gets a format when you convert it into a string. If you don't convert it to a string, there is no way of specifying a format.

b { font-weight: normal; }

Hi frnds,
I have dynamically created dropdownlist control on my web page and tried to create an event like..
DropDownList DDL = new DropDownList();
DDL.ID="DDL"+i.ToString();
DDL.AutoPostBack=true;
DDL.SelectedIndexChanged += new System.EventHandler(this.DDL_selectFontFamily);
void DDL_selectFontFamily(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
DropDownList DDL = (DropDownList)PlaceHolder1.FindControl("DDL0");
string FFamily = DDL.SelectedItem.Value;
Response.Write(FFamily);
}
but it is not working. Infact the control is not going into DDL_selectFontFamily()...saying that DDL is out of scope.
Plz help me out guys.

I am sorry, but EvDate itself is an attribute of the Events class
how can u create an attribute for it?
u can set a value to EvDate by creating an object of the events class
Events ev = new Events();
ev.EvDate = Some value from some function();
regards,
Pramod
