Starting the IceBox Server

Incorporating everything we discussed previously, we can now configure and start IceBox servers.

Starting the IceBox Server

The configuration file for our example C# service is shown below:

IceBox.Service.Greeter=Service/bin/Debug/net8.0/GreeterService.dll:Service.GreeterService --Ice.Trace.Dispatch

Assuming this property resides in a configuration file named config, we can start the C# IceBox server as follows:

dotnet iceboxnet.dll --Ice.Config=config

IceBox Server Failures

At startup, an IceBox server inspects its configuration for all properties having the prefix IceBox.Service and initializes each service. If initialization fails for a service, the IceBox server invokes the stop operation on any initialized services, reports an error, and terminates.
