[Py2exe-users] win32 service dependency

[Jaco S. <JS...@cl...>]

hi there

I've written a simple python that I want to run as a service on win2k.

I've succefully compiled it and it works fine.

however, it depends on another service and I don't know how to register 
the dependancy. Currently when I reboot my machine it  tries to startup 
before the other service  and subsequently fails.

any advice would be appreciated.

thanks
jaco

Please see the code in py2exe/boot_service.py, and
lib/site-packages/win32/lib/win32serviceutil.py.

Would you like to create a patch?
