Nick,
guess I had a similar problem. My solution was:
[....]
cnf=oboxparm.readini()
class oboxservice(win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework):
_svc_name_=cnf.get("system","_svc_name_")
_svc_display_name_ = cnf.get("system","_svc_display_name_")
_svc_description_ = cnf.get("system","_svc_description_")
_svc_deps_ = ["EventLog",cnf.get("system","dbservice")]
def __init__(self, args):
win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework.__init__(self, args)
self.hWaitStop = win32event.CreateEvent(None, 0, 0, None)
[....]
"oboxparm.readini()" is reading a config file in the directory of the
service.exe, and within that config file I store the name of the
service within the parameters.
That reading is done by
from ConfigParser import SafeConfigParser
giving back a configuration structure.
Hope that helps,
Harald
