<systemService> Element

The <systemService> element is a child of the <component> element and is used to declare a system service backed by the containing component. This element may not be used with the <componentType> element. When the <systemService> element is used in a <component> element, a component is loaded and a <systemServiceRef> that references that component is created. The name of the system service is prefixed with the plug-in name when the system service is created in the system.

The <systemService> element has two attributes:

• name – The name of the system service

• description (optional) – The description of the system service
