I keep forgetting this command, so time to blog about it

Occasionally, we’ll want to monitor RV messages being received on our host machine, to do this we can use the tibrvlisten.exe application from the command prompt along with the appropriate arguments. tibrvlisten.exe will filter and display the RV messages as they arrive on the host computer.

An example of use might be

tibrvlisten -service 1234 -network ;123.123.123.123 "mytopics.>"

The -service is the port being used for RV, followed by the IP address of the network it’s on. Note the ; preceding the IP address. Also in this case, I’m filtering what tibrvlisten outputs to the screen by displaying only those messages which start with mytopics. and using the wildcard > symbol.
