Could you not make the ‘_svc_display_name’ an instance attribute instead of class attribute? That is, don't set it as an attribute on the class; instead, set it as an attribute on the instance during initialisation (the ‘__init__’ method). -- \ “Smoking cures weight problems.

Multiple windows services on the same machine
Hi everyone, I'm writing a script which implement a windows service with the win32serviceutil module. The service works perfectly, but now I would need to install several instances of the same service on my machine for testing purpose. This is hard since the service name is hard-coded in the service class definition: class MyService(win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework) : _svc_name_ = 'MyService' _svc_display_name_ = 'Instance ofMyService' def __init__(self, args) : win32serviceutil.ServiceFramework.__init__(self, args) self.hWaitStop = win32event.CreateEvent(None, 0, 0, None) def SvcStop(self) : self.ReportServiceStatus(win32service.SERVICE_STOP_PENDING) sys.stopservice = "true" win32event.SetEvent(self.hWaitStop) def SvcDoRun(self) : #Do something... So can anyone point me out which is the best way to "parametrize" the service name? Thanks in advance for your help! -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
