I'm trying to make basic windows service that should write into application event log some text once every minute. So I'm using a timer. But the Tick event doesn't fire.. I've tried all kinds of timer1.start() or timer1.enabled=true ... but nothing works. Everything with service itself is ok- I mean it can be installed, started and onStart() and onStop() it writes event log (also custom, not only the windows default, so the writing itself works..)
So here's the code:
I'd appreciate any help.
Could the problem be in timer properties suck as modifiers: public, or generate members- true?
I'm using Visual Studio 2005
So here's the code:
C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Diagnostics; using System.ServiceProcess; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; using System.Timers; using System.Threading; namespace SERVICE2 { public partial class SERVICE2 : ServiceBase { public SERVICE2() { InitializeComponent(); } protected override void OnStart(string[] args) { timer1.Enabled = true; string src = "Test_Service_2"; string lg = "Application"; string evnt = "SERVICE2 started!"; if (!EventLog.SourceExists(src)) EventLog.CreateEventSource(src, lg); EventLog.WriteEntry(src, evnt); timer1.Start(); } protected override void OnStop() { string src2 = "Test_Service_2"; string lg2 = "Application"; string evnt2 = "SERVICE2 stopped!"; if (!EventLog.SourceExists(src2)) EventLog.CreateEventSource(src2, lg2); EventLog.WriteEntry(src2, evnt2); timer1.Stop(); timer1.Enabled = false; } private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) { string sSource; string sLog; string sEvent; sSource = "Test_Service_2"; sLog = "Application"; sEvent = "Timer TICK"; if (!EventLog.SourceExists(sSource)) EventLog.CreateEventSource(sSource, sLog); EventLog.WriteEntry(sSource, sEvent); EventLog.WriteEntry(sSource, sEvent, EventLogEntryType.Warning, 234); } } }
