Example service project files

 

The example project can be found in the service sub-directory in the directory where Thread Validator was installed.

 

If the directory is not present, reinstall your software and choose custom or full installation.

 

There are two project files in the directory:

 

•service.dsp for Microsoft® Developer Studio® 6.0  
 

•service.vcproj for Microsoft® Visual Studio / .net
