I'm trying to find a (somewhat) easy way to take a screenshot on window and save the resulting HBITMAP as a JPEG. The tricky part here is that since the code is in C I can't use GDI+ and since the code is a module for a bigger program I can't neither use an external lib (like libjpeg). This code takes a screenshot and returns a HBITMAP....

I have a few (arbitrary) windows services that I would like to stop down in a specific order on shutdown (e.g., stop A, then stop B, then stop C).

When should I go for a Windows Service and when should I go for a "Background Application" that runs in the notification area? If I'm not wrong, my design decision would be, any app that needs to be running before the user logins to the computer should be a service. For everything else use a background app. Is my decision right? Moreov...

Context: if Java's File.renameTo() cannot do it's job (for whatever reason; it is a little problematic), I'd like to fall back to directly using this native Windows function, which is ...
