[Ironpython-users] Windows Service Applications?

[Don Spaulding]

Hi all,

I'm new to IronPython.  I'm using IPy to wrap a .NET assembly.  I've got my
wrapper written and functional from the command line.  Now I want to run
the python wrapper as a windows service application.  Anyone know how I can
do that?

I found a project on codeplex that seems to be solving this problem (
http://dlrhostservice.codeplex.com/).  It's rather light on documentation
and I haven't been able to make heads or tails out of how to use the
project based on reading the source.  Any help in this area would be
appreciated.

Thanks,
Don Spaulding

That approach looks like it would work rather well.  I've actually been
able to get the DLRHostService project to build an exe that wraps my ipy
script.  It's currently not pulling in the python standard library, but I'm
sure I'll be able to figure that out before too long.  If I can't make it
work though, I'll definitely take a look at ServiceEx.

Thanks,
