MP2 Server as a Windows Service? (2 Viewers)

[joemorin73]

If this is a timing issue, I understand. But will the MP2 Server module ever become a windows service? This is quite useful in server setups.

 

[FreakyJ]

this is planned for future releases

NICE!
is there anyway to make the mp2 server go to the systray ?

 

[Albert]

Silent, not yet. But yes, it would be very important to hide the server window...

there are tools to use "any" app as service.. does mp2 work with these? like firedaemon?

Not tested, and I would not recommend to use it this way. But you're free to try, I just can't give support if you have any error with this configuration...

I think it is absolutely ok to use such a tool, if it works
But it must be clear that the final MP2 server WILL probably run as a service.

I'm the first that would enjoy the MP2 Server as a service, but let's not rush Dev. This is an Alpha after all. Running as a service will be needed. I'm hoping that and admin app is also in the works. Perhaps via a WCF connection?
