Note: It is highly recommended to have completed Tutorial
Part I before trying this example.
This example is a Java Swing application that is a graphical version of the
UNIX top utility for the Windows platform. Its backend part uses JNI to
continuously poll Windows about the CPU consumption information. Then the
four processes that have the highest CPU consumption are plotted on a graph.
The proposed partitioning separates the GUI part from the rest of the
application making it possible to monitor the behavior of a Windows-based
system remotely, possibly from a non-Windows device.
Monitor.jar has all the required
files of the example.
1) Run the original centralized application: java monitor.Monitor
2) Load Monitor.xml configuration and perform the distribution.
(See Tutorial I for detailed
instructions).
3) Copy topmonitor.dll to the "windows_pc" site.
Now you ready to run the partitioned version of the application:
4) Run the server at ./step4/windows_pc: startServer.bat or startServer.sh
5) Run the client part at ./step4/unix_ipaq: java remotecapable.monitor.Monitor
