{{Quickfixn}} Cannot launch an initiator app

[Mike Gatny]

Mark,

You'll want to at least put a sleep in that loop, e.g.:  Thread.Sleep(2000);


And you might use a bool in your while loop to allow for an orderly
shutdown, instead of doing while(true).  But that's up to you, and depends
on the rest of your app's architecture.
