In linux environment FORTE works well with Systemctl to create services that restart automatically after some crash or restart. However on windows FORTE program is not compatible with Windows Service API ( as in {FORTE_ROOT_DIR}\src\arch\win32\main.cpp) . For more details about windows service API you can use this link (http://cosmonautdreams.com/2015/01/13/Create-a-dummy-windows-service.html)
Has someone worked with FORTE as service on windows and make it work?
If yes are you using SC command to create FORTE service on windows?
Basically I need a way to ensure that the FORTE on windows will restart after a crash or after a PC restart.
I want to know because I will invest some time to port the main.cpp to be compatible with windows Service API.
