[hobbit] XyMon client for Windows - XyWin.Net

[Fred]

Hi Neil,

Very interested.  Take a look at the code section under the JBoss 
directory in the XyWin.Net project.  The example, JBossJvmStats inherits 
from the XyWinModule class.  The main method, ModuleRun, is called by 
XyWin control.  The XyWinTask reference passed to the module has a 
method which you use to pass any status messages for delivery to the 
server.  The plugin just create messages and leave it to XyWin main to 
worry about formatting and delivery.  The ConsoleTest directory has a 
simple minded example I use for testing.

We should probably take this conversation offline or to the maillist I 
setup for XyWin.Net discussions since this is not directly XyMon 
development related.

Thanks.

Fred
