property bool CanHandlePowerEvent { bool get(); void set(bool value); };public bool CanHandlePowerEvent { get; set; }member this.CanHandlePowerEvent : bool with get, setPublic Property CanHandlePowerEvent As BooleanProperty Value
true if the service handles the computer power status changes indicated in the PowerBroadcastStatus class, otherwise, false.
Exceptions
This property is modified after the service was started.
Remarks
When the computer power status changes, the Service Control Manager (SCM) verifies whether the service accepts power event commands using the value of CanHandlePowerEvent.
If CanHandlePowerEvent is true, the command is passed to the service and the OnPowerEvent method is called if defined. If OnPowerEvent is not implemented in the derived class, the SCM handles the power event through the empty base class ServiceBase.OnPowerEvent method.
