Commit 54a7d799d1 introduced a problem
where /app was used instead of /shell causing a black screen when remote
programs were used. The Android client doesn't support remote apps
therefore /app can't work. "Remote program" just sets the selected
program as shell to run.
It would be good if we have a easy way to call aFreeRDP in another Android APP (Requirement also mentioned in #2720)
We can define a scheme (freerdp://) as unified way to launch FreeRDP from another APP or browser and connect to compatible RDP server
1. Define scheme freerdp://
2. General form could be freerdp://user@hostname:port/connect?key1=value&key2=-&key3=%2b&key4=
3. [user] part would be translated to /u:
4. [hostname:port] would be translated to /v:
5. The [user@hostname:port] part would be used as app title, currently it's just the progress dialog title
6. query parameters would be translated to command line arguments. Later same arguments will overwrite the formers:
a. key1=value: => /key1:value
b. key2=-: => -key2
c. key3=%2b => +key3 (%2b is url encoded +)
d. key4= => /key4
e. Especially, drive=sdcard will be properly handled with local sdcard path. On my device it will be translated to /drive:sdcard,/storage/emulated/0
Owing to the refactor work in PR #3097, we now pass same command line argument to JNI for freerdp settings.
We just need to make the SessionActivity accept freerdp scheme and translate argument from URI form to command line form.
After #3097, the java side pass command line argument to JNI for freerdp settings. However there's several issues need to be fixed:
1. The argument /sound should be appended if freerdp is required to play sound at local device
2. The option value for "audio-mode" is not correct.
It should match the definition in client/common/cmdline.c
/* Audio Mode */
define AUDIO_MODE_REDIRECT 0 /* Bring to this computer */
define AUDIO_MODE_PLAY_ON_SERVER 1 /* Leave at remote computer */
define AUDIO_MODE_NONE 2 /* Do not play */
3. Uncomment support for WAVE_FORMAT_PCM in audin. I tested on my android phone and Nokia N1 tablet. It works on both device
