That'll be because your app isn't a proper Hub Client application and
therefore isn't registering itself as a Client connection in the Hub
clients tree.

You mentioned you started a Heartbeat Pump. Well, doing that looks to
mean your apps is a very basic xAP Transmitter application ie it only
sends messages, not receives.

What you REALLY want to do is to create a Listener object and start
that instead of the h/b pump. Try doing this:

{
xAPListener listener = xAPListenerPortDetector.CreateConfiguredListener();
listener.Start();

: // Stuff

listener.Dispose();
}

You'll see that pattern time and time again the source for my various
xAPps. It's basically the shortest possible route to setting up a
receiver/transmitter xAPp. It will automatically deal with the Hub or
HubClient protocol for you, as that's all built into xAPFramework (or
xFx as I call it a bit now).

All input welcomed. You'll likely see things totally differently to
me, but I do appreciate the comments.
