This package shows the basic usage of WinService by merging the relevant parts of two Coast classes, COAST.CoastApplicationConfiguration from COBase and COAST.CoastMediator. It has minimal cleanup to remove dependencies on COAST, mostly by commenting them out -- hopefully this leaves a better indication of what kinds of code your own application could add and where. See Startup class comment for more documentation.

The license for this is MIT, as with WinService itself. This package is based on the small subset of methods of the two COAST classes that are involved in using WinService, and has abstracted them to create a new class that provides a more generic example to using WinService. It could easily be rewritten to remove similarities with the original COAST code, but keeping similarities should hopefully make it easier to update this in response to bug corrections or improvements in COAST and its use of WinService.
