hello,

i've written a windows service using .net framework 2.0 and c#. the
service runs already for a couple of month and everything is fine so
far. now i came to the point, that the service needs an update of the
exectutable and a classlibrary it depends on. funny thing is, even if
the service runs, i can replace the executables without getting any
error (you can't overrwrite a running executable, can you?). and once i
restart the service, its still the old version running.

the task manager shows me, that it is the correct executable that i'm
overwriting. but how come no changes happen? can it be, that the
executable is cached somewhere? how can i force a recaching?

any help is greatly appreceated.

matthias
