+# libservice
+
+Simple service management library and utilities.
+
+## Usage
+
+### libservice.lib
+
+Clients may include the headers by `#include`ing `include/libservice/all.hpp`, which includes all of the other header files.
+
+For service management usage examples, see the utilities descriptions below.
+
+For virtual device usage examples, refer e.g. to [libnt_path_converter](https://github.com/egor-tensin/windows_drivers/tree/master/utils/libnt_path_converter).
+
+### install_service.exe
+
+    Usage: install_service.exe NAME SYS_PATH
+
+Installs a driver as a service.
+The service is started manually.
+The same as
+
+    sc create NAME type= kernel binPath= SYS_PATH
+
+### start_service.exe
+
+    Usage: start_service.exe NAME
+
+Starts a service (loading the corresponding driver).
+The same as
+
+    sc start NAME
+
+except that `start_service.exe` waits until the service is actually loaded.
+
+### stop_service.exe
+
+    Usage: stop_service.exe NAME
+
+Stops the service `NAME` (unloading the corresponding driver).
+The same as
+
+    sc stop NAME
+
+except that `stop_service.exe` waits until the service is actually stopped.
+
+### uninstall_service.exe
+
+    Usage: uninstall_service.exe NAME
+
+Uninstalls the service `NAME`, wiping the corresponding record from the registry.
+The same as
+
+    sc delete NAME
