Hi,

There is API function ControlService(), which can 'send some
message' to a service from your non-service application.

Besides standard:

   SERVICE_CONTROL_STOP
   SERVICE_CONTROL_PAUSE
   SERVICE_CONTROL_CONTINUE
   SERVICE_CONTROL_INTERROGATE
   SERVICE_CONTROL_SHUTDOWN

it can be used to send user defined message:

   SERVICE_USER_DEFINED_CONTROL

... and so force the service to do something specific. Mainly, I use
user defined way to tell a service to reload the configuration because
I changed it with my non-service app.
