SetServiceName is limited to 25 chars

[Stuart O'Reilly]

Hello All,

I have been chasing a problem which i have narrowed down to be caused by the length of the ServiceName. Basically, when i would try to start my service in the VS2010 debugger, the service would start and die immediately.

I've narrowed it down to the following line

x.SetServiceName("DinRelayControlServiceName");

if i changed the line to

x.SetServiceName("DinRelayControlServiceNam");

(removed one character from the service name) it all works as expected

My initialisation code looks like

            HostFactory.Run(x =>

                    {

                        x.Service<DoDinRelay>(s =>

                    {

                        s.ConstructUsing(name => new DoDinRelay());

                        s.WhenStarted(tc => tc.Start());

                        s.WhenStopped(tc => tc.Stop());

                    });

                        x.RunAsLocalSystem();

                        x.SetDescription("DinRelayControl using Topshelf");

                        x.SetDisplayName("DinRelayControl");

                        x.SetServiceName("DinRelayControlServiceName");

                    });

This only occurs when i am debugging it in Visual Studio 2010. If I install it as a service, the service name length doesn't affect the service operation

I am using 

Topshelf v3.0.105.0,

and

.NET Framework v4.0.30319.1008

Is this a bug?

Thanks

Stuart
