Examples
The following example demonstrates the use of the CanStop property to determine whether a service provides a handler for a stop event. This example is part of a larger example that is provided for the ServiceController class.
// Display properties for the Simple Service sample
// from the ServiceBase example.
ServiceController sc = new ServiceController("Simple Service");
Console.WriteLine("Status = " + sc.Status);
Console.WriteLine("Can Pause and Continue = " + sc.CanPauseAndContinue);
Console.WriteLine("Can ShutDown = " + sc.CanShutdown);
Console.WriteLine("Can Stop = " + sc.CanStop);
' Display properties for the Simple Service sample
' from the ServiceBase example
Dim sc As New ServiceController("Simple Service")
Console.WriteLine("Status = " + sc.Status.ToString())
Console.WriteLine("Can Pause and Continue = " + _
sc.CanPauseAndContinue.ToString())
Console.WriteLine("Can ShutDown = " + sc.CanShutdown.ToString())
Console.WriteLine("Can Stop = " + sc.CanStop.ToString())
