I was only creating one instance of bgp_beacon, but I made the variable
static just to be safe.

I did this and my program gets started right after the bgp module.

I still get the error "XrlRouter failed.  No Finder?" and then my module
abnormally exits.  Here is how I declare my XrlRouter:

HEADER FILE:
------------
XrlStdRouter *_xrl_router;

SOURCE FILE:
------------
in my ctor() I have the following two lines:

_xrl_router = new XrlStdRouter(_eventloop, "bgp_beacon");
wait_until_xrl_router_is_ready(_eventloop, *_xrl_router);

I am under the impression that I am using the default finder host and
finder port.  Should I try specifying them?


Thanks,
