Updated: cygrunsrv-1.20-1


I have updated cygrunsrv to version 1.20-1.

It introduces two new command line switches and new functionality:

  -O, --preshutdown

    Starting with Windows Vista/Longhorn, the --preshutdown option
    allows to terminate the service before the real shutdown takes
    place, giving the service up to 3 minutes for its shutdown actions.
    Only one of the --preshutdown/--shutdown options is allowed.  If you
    use --preshutdown on operating systems prior to Vista/Longhorn, it
    will be silently converted to --shutdown at service runtime.

    This option could be interesting especially for services which
    have to do a lot of cleanup action.  postgresql might be a good
    candidate.

  -z, --shutsig <signal>

    Optional signal to send to service application to stop the service
    in case of a system shutdown.  This is useful if your service
    application wants to allow different actions to be taken on a normal
    service stop and on system shutdown.  Note that the --shutsig option
    only has an effect if you use the --preshutdown or --shutdown option.
    The default signal on shutdown is the termination signal set with
    --termsig, TERM otherwise.

If you have questions or comments, please send them to the Cygwin 
mailing list at:  cygwin@cygwin.com .  I would appreciate
if you would use this mailing list rather than emailing me directly.
This includes ideas and comments about the setup utility or Cygwin
in general.

If you want to make a point or ask a question the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.
