This code sample demonstrates creating a very basic Windows Service application in Visual C++. The example Windows Service logs the service start and stop information to the Application event log, and shows how to run the main function of the service in a thread pool worker thread. You can easily extend the Windows Service skeleton to meet your own business requirement.
