class Util_API ServerApplication: public Application
	/// A subclass of the Application class that is used
	/// for implementing server applications.
	///
	/// A ServerApplication allows for the application
	/// to run as a Windows service or as a Unix daemon
	/// without the need to add extra code.
	///
	/// For a ServerApplication to work both from the command line
	/// and as a daemon or service, a few rules must be met:
	///   - Subsystems must be registered in the constructor.
	///   - All non-trivial initializations must be made in the
	///     initialize() method.
	///   - At the end of the main() method, waitForTerminationRequest()
	///     should be called.
	///   - New threads must only be created in initialize() or main() or
	///     methods called from there, but not in the application class'
	///     constructor or in the constructor of instance variables.
	///     The reason for this is that fork() will be called in order to
	///     create the daemon process, and threads created prior to calling
	///     fork() won't be taken over to the daemon process.
	///   - The main(argc, argv) function must look as follows:
	///
	///   int main(int argc, char** argv)
	///   {
	///       MyServerApplication app;
	///       return app.run(argc, argv);
	///   }
	///
	/// The POCO_SERVER_MAIN macro can be used to implement main(argc, argv).
	/// If POCO has been built with POCO_WIN32_UTF8, POCO_SERVER_MAIN supports
	/// Unicode command line arguments.
	///
	/// On Windows platforms, an application built on top of the
	/// ServerApplication class can be run both from the command line
	/// or as a service.
	///
	/// To run an application as a Windows service, it must be registered
	/// with the Windows Service Control Manager (SCM). To do this, the application
	/// can be started from the command line, with the /registerService option
	/// specified. This causes the application to register itself with the
	/// SCM, and then exit. Similarly, an application registered as a service can
	/// be unregistered, by specifying the /unregisterService option.
	/// The file name of the application executable (excluding the .exe suffix)
	/// is used as the service name. Additionally, a more user-friendly name can be
	/// specified, using the /displayName option (e.g., /displayName="Demo Service")
	/// and a service description can be added with the /description option.
	/// The startup mode (automatic or manual) for the service can be specified
	/// with the /startup option.
	///
	/// An application can determine whether it is running as a service by checking
	/// for the "application.runAsService" configuration property.
	/// 
	///     if (config().getBool("application.runAsService", false))
	///     {
	///         // do service specific things
	///     }
	///
	/// Note that the working directory for an application running as a service
	/// is the Windows system directory (e.g., C:\Windows\system32). Take this
	/// into account when working with relative filesystem paths. Also, services
	/// run under a different user account, so an application that works when
	/// started from the command line may fail to run as a service if it depends
	/// on a certain environment (e.g., the PATH environment variable).
	///
	/// An application registered as a Windows service can be started
	/// with the NET START <name> command and stopped with the NET STOP <name>
	/// command. Alternatively, the Services MMC applet can be used.
	///
	/// On Unix platforms, an application built on top of the ServerApplication
	/// class can be optionally run as a daemon by giving the --daemon
	/// command line option. A daemon, when launched, immediately
	/// forks off a background process that does the actual work. After launching
	/// the background process, the foreground process exits.
	/// 
	/// After the initialization is complete, but before entering the main() method,
	/// the current working directory for the daemon process is changed to the root
	/// directory ("/"), as it is common practice for daemon processes. Therefore, be
	/// careful when working with files, as relative paths may not point to where
	/// you expect them point to.
	///
	/// An application can determine whether it is running as a daemon by checking
	/// for the "application.runAsDaemon" configuration property.
	///
	///     if (config().getBool("application.runAsDaemon", false))
	///     {
	///         // do daemon specific things
	///     }
	///
	/// When running as a daemon, specifying the --pidfile option (e.g.,
	/// --pidfile=/var/run/sample.pid) may be useful to record the process ID of 
	/// the daemon in a file. The PID file will be removed when the daemon process 
	/// terminates (but not, if it crashes).
