Most likely by adding some code to the start and stop methods of the service.

There is no stop and start method in nssm. Is it possible to code in the storescp code of dcmtk.

No idea, what does the documentation say?

It doesnt mention regarding this in the documentation.I Can able to find the start and abort in the storescp but not the stop in the storescp listener.I need to know when the listener is stopped need to log an entry of it.

Sorry, I have never used this product and, to be honest, it looks like a hack.

Pipe the console output of Dcmtk storescp to your own executable that parses the words that say start and stop. I do not know the exact wording. But I had done it before. But you cannot run it as a windows service this way.

A way to detect the listener is still alive is to have it echo your words and detect it.

OP should have put in more effort in reading documentation since he is coding a medical application.
