.NET Windows Service - multiple services in one project

Question

Currently, I have a project with a Windows Service. I also created another \"Setup Project\" which installs the Windows Service.

My question is this: Can I add anot

Answer 1

I am a developer for an open source windows service hosting framework called Daemoniq. Running multiple services in one process is one of its features. You can download it from http://daemoniq.org

Current features include:

• container agnostic service location via the CommonServiceLocator
• set common service properties like serviceName, displayName, description and serviceStartMode via app.config
• run multiple windows services on the same process
• set recovery options via app.config
• set services depended on via app.config
• set service process credentials via command-line
• install, uninstall, debug services via command-line

Thanks!

Answer 2

I know this is already answered, but if you'd like an example (code) of how to run two services in the same project please have a look at my answer to a similar question:

Can I have multiple services hosted in a single windows executable.

Thanks!

Answer 3

yes, you can have multiple services in the same project. Although they both use the same exe, they are loaded into different memory spaces and act independently of each other.
