Hi all,


I am looking into writing a service using BCB5, and when I go New..., I
have a choice between a new Service and a new Service Application.


Could somebody give me an idea of the differences (and similiarities)
between them?


TIA.


Paul...


p.s. sorry if this is the wrong group - any pointers to the correct one
appreciated.

Paul,

The difference is basically that a service is just one service, while a
service application can have multiple services.

They are completely different from each other, in terms of functionality.
The relationship between a "Service" (aka TService) and a "Service
Application" (aka TServiceApplication) is similar to the relationship
between TForm and TApplication. Just as TApplication is merely a container
for TForm instances, so too is a TServiceApplication merely a container for
TService instances.
