[Solved] Creating Windows Services (Nt Services) using Qt
-
Hi
I'm looking for a way to create Windows services using Qt. I searched the net but couldn't find a way. Doesn't Qt provide a standard way of doing this, or should go go the old Winapi way? I found that there was a class QtService, but for an unknown reason for me, it is no longer avaliable in latest Qt package. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks -
There is no standard way to achieve this. You can use Qt to create the application, but there is no cross platform API in Qt to install a service (Windows), launch daemon/agent (Mac) or the equivalent on a Linux/Unix system.

You can use the Service solution:

Davita,
Have you had success with services?
I can obtain only an "Error 3" ("The system can not find the path", or something)
