spyserv.C File Reference

Detailed Description

Server program which allows clients, "spies", to connect and snoop objects.

To run this demo do the following:

• open two or more windows
• start root in all windows
• execute in the first window: .x spyserv.C (or spyserv.C++)
• execute in the other window(s): .x spy.C (or spy.C++)
• in the "spy" client windows click the "Connect" button and snoop the histograms by clicking on the "hpx", "hpxpy" and "hprof" buttons
