WIN32_DELETE_SERVICE(3) 1 WIN32_DELETE_SERVICE(3)
win32_delete_service - Deletes a service entry from the SCM database
SYNOPSIS
mixed win32_delete_service (string $servicename, [string $machine])
DESCRIPTION
Attempts to delete a service from the SCM database. Administrative privileges are required for this to succeed.
This function really just marks the service for deletion. If other processes (such as the Services Applet) are open, then the deletion
will be deferred until those applications are closed. If a service is marked for deletion, further attempts to delete it will fail, and
attempts to create a new service with that name will also fail.
PARAMETERS
o $servicename
- The short name of the service.
o $machine
- The optional machine name. If omitted, the local machine will be used.
RETURN VALUES
Returns WIN32_NO_ERROR on success, FALSE if there is a problem with the parameters or a Win32 Error Code on failure.
