Property Value

The ServiceName identifies the service to the Service Control Manager. The value of this property must be identical to the name recorded for the service in the ServiceInstaller.ServiceName property of the corresponding installer class. In code, the ServiceName of the service is usually set in the main() function of the executable.

The ServiceName is also used to specify the EventLog.Source associated with the EventLog property. This EventLog is an instance that writes service command information to the Application log.

The ServiceName, which supplies the source string for the event log, must be set before the service writes to the event log. Trying to access the event log before the source name is set causes an exception to be thrown.
