How can I serve up some simple web pages to show status / interact with a .net application?

I have a (C++-CLI) .net (v2.0) application which collects data and I'd like to serve that information via a simple set of web pages.

Eventually I'd like a mechanism to interact with the application, but for now just serving up information would be good.

I couldn't see and obvious way to serve them direct from the app but if there are ways of interacting with an external (lightweight) web server that would be an acc开发者_Python百科eptable solution too (I imagine writing a custom module which shares memory or something along those lines).

Any suggestions would be very welcome.

why not just save that data to a file and create a php/ajax to parse it and deliver to the client's browser?
