Hi all!

I have developed a webservice that writeing and reading files in different
folders.

Question 1: I need to be able to start and stop this service by using a web
interface
(start and stop button). But I can´t find any way to this. Any ideas?

Question 2: Where can I see if this service is running?

Question 3: Can I get the current "uptime" for the service?

Sounds like you'll need to implement some lifecycle methods around your web
service. One approach to this is having three methods (operations in web
service jargon).

Start();
YourWebServicerOperation( Parameters here );
Stop();

Start could create a thread(s) that would service requests and record the
start time. Stop could stop the thread(s) and record the stop time; and your
actual web service would be the third (or more) method(s). We've used a
similar approach with some success on a project.

hope this helps,

Hi Harris!

Thanks for your answer. I´ve done it with a timer witch I start and stop
with button-events. Every time it´s elapsed I do the operations that should
be done.

It´s a little bit unstable with timer.stop() and timer.enabled=false;. It´s
not allways the timer want´s to stop, but that is a smaller problem right
now
