[1.0/1.1] Stop Thread Continued

Hi all,

Thank you for all of your help on getting me this far. My service is coming along fine and I now what it to stop if there is a problem. In my OnStart method I start my thread for the service. To stop a service it was suggested that I set a flag and have the thread test for it.

In my thread I initiate a timer object to run my process at the desired interval. If my process fails I set a flag in the class. The next time the timer runs it checks this flag and if the process failed the timer is disabled. While I am in the OnServiceElapsedTime method is there a way to get the thread to check that the timer has been deactivated and that the thread should close?

Thanks for the advice.
Steve

namespace CoReplication
{
        public class Replication : System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase
        {
                public Replication()
                {
                }

                static  void Main()
                {
                        System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase[] ServicesToRun;
                        ServicesToRun = new System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase[] { new Replication() };
                        System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.Run(ServicesToRun);
                }

                private void OnServiceElapsedTime(object source, System.Timers.ElapsedEventArgs e)
                if (_replicationMain.Failed() == false)
                {
                        _replicationMain.Start();
                }
                else
                {
                        _serviceTimer.Enabled = false;
                }

                protected override void OnStart(string[] args)
                {
                        Thread t = new Thread(new ThreadStart(StartService));
                        t.Start();
                }
 
                protected override void OnStop()
                {
                        StopService();
                }

                private void StartService()
                {
                        _serviceTimer.Enabled = true;
                }

                private void StopService()
                {
                        _replicationMain.Stop();
                }
        }
