    Hi,

    Yes, you can use Ice::Service for this purpose. See here in the manual for more information on the Ice::Service class. The issue #10 of the Connections newsletter also contain some examples on how to write a Windows service.

    Another and simpler option is to implement an IceBox service, compile it into a DLL and run the icebox executable as a Windows service. See here for more information on IceBox.

    Cheers,
    Benoit.
