Some remarks - or better: questions... - from Matthias Hoffmann
The documentation about how to install such type of service at [L1 ] is possibly incomplete...
- What makes the myapp.exe -install-step? At least on the two systems I've tested on, nothing (visible) happens.
- The Registry-Key under the services-section, which one should define, is not in the standard 'services-format', as an entry would be if created, for example, with instsrv. What is this regkey for - will it only be read by myapp.exe?
- Installing myapp.exe with Microsoft's instsrv.exe leads at least to a correct service entry in the registry (and so in the control panel services applet). But then doing net start myservice shows an dll tcl83.dll not found-error. Indeed, there is no such DLL on my system, because I'm running tcl 8.4.4..... I thought, tclsvc would work with any Tcl 8.x, but this is not the case...
