A Project Template for developing Windows Service easily (code).

For developing a Windows Service:

Implement IService like SampleService.

This service will run in Main method just using this code: new SampleService().Run();.

After you are done with development of your service, just set Servo/Conf/RunInService inApp.config to true. After that, in the command line, pass-i to install the service.

You can also set things like service name and description in App.config.

V 0.9

Some settings added and project structure changed; keeping in mind to not breaking things as much as possible.

V 0.8

Help for command line shows a dialog now.

V 0.7

RunInService is now in App.config so it can be easily changed if one forgot to set it to true even after deployment; so there is no difference between development assemblies and deployment assemblies other than the flag in App.config.

V 0.6

F# VSIX added. Both project templates will be accessible via Visual Studio Gallery.

V 0.5

It is now a Windows Application, so the app can handle Windows Messages. The service has just to implementServo.IService and the Main method would just call new XServiceService().Run(); when developing, and new XServiceService().Run(true); when we release.

V 0.1

(Structurally changed, not applicable)

NLog is used for logging as a NuGet.
