windows-service 0.8.1

A crate that provides facilities for management and implementation of windows services
Documentation
//! This is an example program that demonstrates how to send a user-defined control code to a given service.
//!
//! Run in command prompt as admin:
//!
//! `notify_service.exe SERVICE_NAME`
//!
//! Replace the `SERVICE_NAME` placeholder above with the name of the service that the program
//! should notify.
