Hi,

I'm trying to add the backup and restore environments in my application, but I have some doubts:

My application is a Windows Service and I use the Firebird 2.1.3 embbeded. The user configures a schedule to start the backup, and the program can't be closed while the backup is running.

I see that backup and restore components works when I call the StartService method, but don't have events to retrieve the backup state, like OnFinished.

The process run in a separate thread? How I can check if the backup is finished?

You can use the IsServiceRunning method to detect if the service is still running.

But if the program is closed while the service is running, an exception occurs

Add the following code for the OnClose event of TForm:

The service runs in the main thread?

The service runs in a thread created by the Firebird server.
