Re: User interface and services.exe

It might be physically possible by launching a new thread for a message
loop, etc., but you definitely *shouldn't* do it, even if it's theoretically
possible. Are you saying that you want the configuration program or
whatever for the service to be part of the service DLL itself? That's
definitely not the way it's intended to work; write a separate Control Panel
applet or configuration application. Or are you saying that you want to
have a program that acts as a background service and has some UI? If that's
it, you should consider not doing this as a service, but just as an
application.

Is there any reason I can not run a GUI from my dll that I load into
services.exe. I do not really want a client/server architecture, I am
trying to keep this as simple as possible with one app/dll for the
whole project.
Thanks for any help
