Service Host component

Service Host is a Vizrt component that abstracts the Windows Service layer. The Service Host operates with plugins that implement a desired service or functionality. The Service Host itself takes care of logging and all the Windows Service stuff.

An example is the Control Mode plugin, which by default is registered as a Windows service called ServiceHost.control. Control Mode provides a REST interface and comes with a web-based user interface. It provides the necessary functionality to manage the Service Host plugins and installed Viz Engine instances.
