Description
Specifies the estimated time, in milliseconds, between a call from the Windows Service Control Manager and the service reporting its status.
WaitHint specifies the amount of time, in milliseconds, that can elapse between a pending start, stop, pause, or continue operation and the service setting its status with a call to the Windows API. Normally this is handled automatically. If the service performs a lengthy operation of more than WaitHint time in one of its event handlers, you should call ReportStatus method to update to the Service Control Manager.
