Sohail, Cliff 
Look at Chapter 5 "The ACE Service Configurator Framework" in "C++ Network Programming" v2 of D. Schmidt . The chapter is  about the subject of your discussion and explains how it works.

So what about someone submitting a "service" library for 
Boost? (I'm not sure what the definition of a service is - 
I'm a little bit familiar with Windows services, and the 
same for Unix daemons, but not sure what the higher-level 
abstraction for both would be, since the details of both 
OS facilities have some significant differences.)
