ServiceController class defined in the System.ServiceProcess namespace is used to work with services. ServiceController.GetServices static method gets all services installed on a machine.
This code snippet demonstrates how to get all services installed on a machine and list them in a ListBox control.
Create a Windows Forms application, add a ListBox control onto the Form, add following code and call GetAllServices method on the Form's load event handler.
private void GetAllServices()
{
foreach (ServiceController service in ServiceController.GetServices())
{
string serviceName = service.ServiceName;
string serviceDisplayName = service.DisplayName;
string serviceType = service.ServiceType.ToString();
string status = service.Status.ToString();
ServicesListBox.Items.Add(serviceName + " " + serviceDisplayName +
serviceType + " " + status);
}
}
