Currently in Remote App mode we have no option to interact with the
remote desktop host before the first RAIL window is created.
In many situations this interaction possibility is absolutely required.
One example is that screen which gets displayed if another user is logged on.
It requires clicking a button in pre-RAIL mode so that the currently logged
on user gets notified to confirm or deny the connection.
Another example is the option to log on graphically (e.g. for hosts that
don't support NLA) without predefined credentials.
Also if the administrator sets the "User must change password at next logon"
option there is currently no way to do this in TS Remote App mode.
This change basically lets xfreerdp create the main window in Remote App mode
like in a normal session and xfi->remote_app is not set to true initially.
As soon as the rail exec result event or the first rail window creation
request is received (whatever comes first) the main window gets destroyed and
xfi->remote_app is set to true.
The second change is to disconnect immediately if the rail exec result event
reports an error, e.g. if the specified app cannot be found or if it is not
in the list of allowed applications.
This fixes FreeRDP github issue #143 and issue #308.
I'm aware that this is not the most elegant solution but it is definitely an
improvement and probably good enough for 1.0.
A nicer solution would be hiding the main window and only displaying it if
no rail exec result or rail window creation event is received after a certain
timeout ...
Moving the osMajorType and osMinorType settings to the client so that the
client can set a real os type constant. This will give a more useful hint
to the server.
fixes crash on MacOS X and systems without WM.
some of the other XInternAtom calls should probably be changed to
False, but they don't appear to cause crashes
If fullscreen==true then settings->width and settings->height are
calculated in xf_monitor.c based on the vscreen->area which is in
turn calculated using xinerama functions.
Thus if xinerama is not used this will result in width=height=1.
Complete implementation for initiating RAIL local move support, however, this is still disabled until a method is found to tell when local moves complete on the X server.
