win32_create_service — Creates a new service entry in the SCM database
$details, string $machine = ?): voidAttempts to add a service into the SCM database. Administrative privileges are required for this to succeed.
detailsAn array of service details:
service
           The short name of the service.  This is the name that you
           will use to control the service using the net
           command.  The service must be unique (no two services can share the
           same name), and, ideally, should avoid having spaces in the name.
          
displayThe display name of the service. This is the name that you will see in the Services Applet.
descriptionThe long description of the service. This is the description that you will see in the Services Applet.
userThe name of the user account under which you want the service to run. If omitted, the service will run as the LocalSystem account. If the username is specified, you must also provide a password.
password
           The password that corresponds to the user.
          
pathThe full path to the executable module that will be launched when the service is started. If omitted, the path to the current PHP process will be used.
params
           Command line parameters to pass to the service when it starts.
           If you want to run a PHP script as the service, then the first
           parameter should be the full path to the PHP script that you intend
           to run. If the script name or path contains spaces, then wrap the
           full path to the PHP script with ".
          
load_orderControls the load_order. This is not yet fully supported.
svc_type
           Sets the service type.  If omitted, the default value is
           WIN32_SERVICE_WIN32_OWN_PROCESS.
           Don't change this unless you know what you're doing.
          
start_type
           Specifies how the service should be started.  The default is
           WIN32_SERVICE_AUTO_START which means the
           service will be launched when the machine starts up.
          
error_control
           Informs the SCM what it should do when it detects a problem with
           the service.  The default is
           WIN32_SERVER_ERROR_IGNORE.  Changing this
           value is not yet fully supported.
          
delayed_start
           If delayed_start is set to true, then this
           will inform the SCM that this service should be started after other
           auto-start services are started plus a short delay.
          
           Any service can be marked as a delayed auto-start service; however,
           this setting has no effect unless the service's
           start_type is
           WIN32_SERVICE_AUTO_START.
          
This setting is only applicable on Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 or greater.
base_priorityTo reduce the impact on processor utilisation, it may be necessary to set a base priority lower than normal.
           The base_priority can be set to one of the
           constants define in
           Win32 Base Priority Classes.
          
dependenciesTo define the dependencies for your service, it may be necessary to set this parameter to the list of the services names in an array.
recovery_delayThis parameter defines the delay between the fail and the execution of recovery action. The value is in milliseconds.
The default value is 60000.
recovery_action_1
           The action will be executed on first failure. The default value is 
           WIN32_SC_ACTION_NONE.
          
           The recovery_action_1 can be set to one of the
           constants defined in
           Win32 Recovery action.
          
recovery_action_2
           The action will be executed on second failure. The default value is 
           WIN32_SC_ACTION_NONE.
          
           The recovery_action_2 can be set to one of the
           constants defined in
           Win32 Recovery action.
          
recovery_action_3
           The action will be executed on next failures. The default value is 
           WIN32_SC_ACTION_NONE.
          
           The recovery_action_3 can be set to one of the
           constants defined in
           Win32 Recovery action.
          
recovery_reset_periodThe failure count will be reset after the delay defined in the parameter. The delay is expirement in seconds.
           The default value is 86400.
          
recovery_enabled
           Set this parameter at true to enable the recovery settings, false 
           to disable. 
          
           The default value is false
          
recovery_reboot_msg
           Set this parameter to define the message saved into the Windows Event 
           Log before the reboot. Used only if one action is set to 
           WIN32_SC_ACTION_REBOOT.
          
recovery_command
           Set this parameter to define the command executed when one action is defined on  
           WIN32_SC_ACTION_RUN_COMMAND.
          
machineThe optional machine name on which you want to create a service. If omitted, it will use the local machine.
No value is returned.
   Prior to version 1.0.0, returned WIN32_NO_ERROR on success, false if there is a problem with the parameters or a Win32 Error Code on failure.

   value of service parameter is empty.
