Return Value |
Description |
|
>= ISERR_SUCCESS |
Indicates that the function retrieved the state of the service. Additional status information is available in the SERVICE_IS_STATUS system variable. |
|
< ISERR_SUCCESS |
Indicates that the function was unable to retrieve the state of the service. If this function fails, additional error information may be available by calling GetExtendedErrInfo and checking the value of its third argument. (This value typically indicates the result of internally calling the Windows API function GetLastError after a call to a Windows API function failed.) You can obtain the error message text associated with a large negative return value—for example, -2147024891 (0x80070005)—by calling FormatMessage. |
