Thanks for suggestion. I'll try it out as soon as I can. Currently I
do it in that way:

application = service.Application("MyService")
myLogService = myLogService(LOG_NAME, LOG_DIR)
myLogService.setServiceParent(application)


what is the difference between creating service and setting
setServiceParent and setComponent?
