windows IOT:SvcMain function definition is not calling from SERVICE_TABLE_ENTRY structure in VC++

[hemanth kumar velooru]

Hello team,

we are developing windows service, while debugging we observed that SvcMain function definition is not calling from SERVICE_TABLE_ENTRY structure ,

Could anyone please help me why the control is not going to "SvcMain" function definition ?

Svc.cpp - Win32 apps

here i included the code which i used .

Code link : Svc.cpp - Win32 apps

Code I used :

#include <windows.h>
#include <tchar.h>
#include <strsafe.h>
#include "sample.h"

#define SVCNAME TEXT("SvcName")
