ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS

The ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS structure is used by the EnumDependentServices and EnumServicesStatus functions to return the name of a service in a service control manager database and to return information about that service.

typedef struct _ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS { 
  LPTSTR lpServiceName; 
  LPTSTR lpDisplayName; 
  SERVICE_STATUS ServiceStatus; 
} ENUM_SERVICE_STATUS, *LPENUM_SERVICE_STATUS; 

Members

lpServiceName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that names a service in a service control manager database. The maximum string length is 256 characters. The service control manager database preserves the case of the characters, but service name comparisons are always case insensitive. A slash (/), backslash (\), comma, and space are invalid service name characters.
lpDisplayName
Pointer to a null-terminated string that is to be used by user interface programs to identify the service. This string has a maximum length of 256 characters. The name is case-preserved in the Service Control Manager. Display name comparisons are always case-insensitive.
ServiceStatus
Specifies a SERVICE_STATUS structure in which status information about the lpServiceName service is returned.
