[icecast] Icecast2 Win32: any way to minimize on start or run as a service?
Is there any way to run Icecast2 Win32 at Windows startup and at least one of the following: minimized, in the system tray, or as an NT/2000 service? I looked through the docs but couldn't find anything.

The only problem is that it won't start minimized... oddsock <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I believe there is some way of forcing a Win32 app to run as a service as long as it doesn't require any input, but I can't find the details at the moment. I can see it being a very useful option for the Icecast2 Win32 program. It could be then used on a Windows server which are often not logged in for security reasons. Maybe something for you to investigate sometime oddsock. A service often generates a system tray icon at startup and only displays the main form when the icon is double-clicked.

Or does your executable override this? regards Thomas --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Why not try http://www.firedaemon.com ? Since I haven't used a Win32 based server is years I haven't used it in a long time but it used to do the trick quite nicely... <p>-Evan On Thu, 2004-02-05 at 05:59, Ross Levis wrote:> I believe there is some way of forcing a Win32 app to run as a service > as long as it doesn't require any input, but I can't find the details > at the moment.
