Open up Parameters class for integration in Spring Boot Admin project

In the Spring Boot Admin project there is an effort to integrate Javamelody as part of the user interface. A pull request exists, but it is currently blocked, because it depends on accessibility to the net.bull.javamelody.Parameters class.

https://github.com/codecentric/spring-boot-admin/pull/450

Would it be possible to make the methods addCollectorApplication and removeCollectorApplication publicly available? That way it is possible to dynamically add applications to the javamelody dashboard once these applications register themselves with service discovery.

I would be ok to add the 2 public static methods in the CollectorServlet class. That is:

public class CollectorServlet extends HttpServlet {
...
	public static void addCollectorApplication(String application, List<URL> urls) throws IOException {
		Parameters.addCollectorApplication(application, urls);
	}

	public static void removeCollectorApplication(String application) throws IOException {
		Parameters.removeCollectorApplication(application);
	}
...
}

Is it ok for you?

@anderius I suggest that you keep a Set (or a Map) of the added applications in your own bean. So you can add all applications the first time, then add only the new applications which are not already in your Set.
