Description gerhard.bremer 2001-07-03 06:39:23 CDT 
I'm trying to deploy TAO on Win32 using Windows Installer. However, since ImplRepo_Service.exe requires the -s Parameter to run as a service, it cannot be registered by Windows Installer. On the other hand, calling ImplRepo_Service.exe to register itself pops up a console window during setup, which gives an ugly and improfessional look. Would it be possible to change the default to Service Mode? I'm sure, others deploying TAO on Win32 will apprechiate it as well.

kind regards

Is TAO 1.0.16 actually the version you're using?  Can you please verify that 
this problem exists with the latest TAO beta (currently 1.1.18)?
Comment 2 gerhard.bremer 2001-07-09 01:47:52 CDT 
Oops, of course the Version is 1._1_.16, I apologize fore that... I haven't checked V 1.1.18 yet but will do so the next days.
Comment 3 Irfan Pyarali 2001-07-26 12:43:54 CDT 
Gerhard, did you get a chance to try with the latest beta?
Comment 4 gerhard.bremer 2001-07-27 08:21:07 CDT 
Irfan, the current Version in CVS repository still works the same
(see processing of Option -s in 
ACE_wrappers\TAO\orbsvcs\ImplRepo_Service\Options.cpp)

For now I have a workaround, so I can live with it.

Steve, another one ;-)

This is still a valid feature request.  However, things have changed slightly. 
Now to install the ImplRepo_Service as a "Service" requires "-c install" on the
command line.
