Return Values

Returns an array consisting of the following information on success

Prior version 1.0.0, false if there is a problem with the parameters or a Win32 Error Code on failure.

ServiceType

The dwServiceType. See Win32Service Service Type Bitmasks.

CurrentState

The dwCurrentState. See Win32Service Service Status Constants.

ControlsAccepted

Which service controls are accepted by the service. See Win32Service Service Control Message Accepted Bitmasks.

Win32ExitCode

If the service exited, the return code from the process. This value is equal to WIN32_ERROR_SERVICE_SPECIFIC_ERROR if the exit mode is not gracefuly. See Win32Service error codes and win32_set_service_exit_mode()

ServiceSpecificExitCode

If the service exited with an error condition, the service specific code that is logged in the event log is visible here. This value is equal to the value defined by win32_set_service_exit_code()

CheckPoint

If the service is shutting down, holds the current check point number. This is used by the SCM as a kind of heart-beat to detect a wedged service process. The value of the check point is best interpreted in conjunction with the WaitHint value.

WaitHint

If the service is shutting down it will set WaitHint to a checkpoint value that will indicate 100% completion. This can be used to implement a progress indicator.

ProcessId

The Windows process identifier. If 0, the process is not running.

ServiceFlags

The dwServiceFlags. See Win32Service Service Flag Constants.
