Thanks for answering, here are a couple more questions.

How do I do that? Should I override SvcRun and call
self.ReportServiceStatus(win32service.SERVICE_STOP_PENDING) but add
parameters for win32ExitCode or svcExitCode?
Wouldn't it be better if the serviceframework always returned an error code
if the process exited because of an unhandled exception? This would make it
real easy to have self restarting services.

Would the code perhaps be something like the code in the py file that runs
COM objects out of process?
Sorry for asking this much but I am haven't written any services in C/C++,
I'd better read up on it there.
