public function get CanShutdown () : boolean

public function set CanShutdown (value : boolean)

Not applicable.

Property Value

If CanShutdown is true, the service is notified when the system is shutting down. At shutdown, the OnShutdown method is called if it has been implemented in your derived class.

Note:
Only the system should cause the OnShutdown method to execute; the service can call it, but this is not recommended.

The following example shows the use of the CanShutdown property to indicate that a class derived from ServiceBase can handle the event. This example is part of a larger example provided for the ServiceBase class.

public SimpleService()
{
    CanPauseAndContinue = true;
    CanHandleSessionChangeEvent = true;
    ServiceName = "SimpleService";
}
