If the display channel is available we use it to allow the user to resize the
xfreerdp window. When the window is resized we announce a new monitor layout and
the server reacts by doing a reactivation sequence to the new size.
The minimum window size is limited to 300x300 as 2012 servers crash horribly
if we send them a smaller layout.
With some usb barcode scanners, repeated characters do not appear in the freerdp session.
It looks like this is because the KeyRelease signal is not sent for the first character.
Removing this if check fixes the problem.
XSelection protocol does not define any global clipboard as there is on
Windows. Instead each window has its own property for clipboard content
(like CLIPBOARD or PRIMARY) and there is a global notion of clipboard
ownership. Only one window can claim ownership of some clipboard type
at the moment.
FreeRDP uses CLIPBOARD for clipboard transfers (it's the one used by
applications when Ctrl+V is pressed). For regular desktop sessions the
session window itself is used for clipboard interactions via
xfc->drawable field. However, for remote app session there is no session
window. We cannot use the current remote app window as it may change or
be destroyed without closing the session. We also cannot use the root
window as it is already used for CF_RAW transfer protocol.
Therefore we create a simple dummy window to put into xfc->drawable for
this exact job: to act as a clipboard vessel on behalf of the entire
remote app session.
xf_create_window() usually creates the window as we immediately start in
RAIL mode when possible. xf_rail_enable_remoteapp_mode() is invoked only
when autologin failed or remote desktop had to show the session window
to the user for some reason.
- fixed invalid, missing or additional arguments
- removed all type casts from arguments
- added missing (void*) typecasts for %p arguments
- use inttypes defines where appropriate
RDP expects to receive an indicator of the physical mouse button that
was pressed on the client, whereas X11 deliver a value for which
logical mouse button that was pressed.
This patch introduces a (reverse) mapping from logical mouse buttons to
physical mouse buttons, so that the RDP server can do correct mapping
for the event on its end.
However, no actual mapping is done here; this patch just introduces the
framework to do so. Thus, there should be no behavioural change from
this patch alone.
There is an implicit assumption that only the first three buttons are
mapped to eachother. Enabling more a general mapping would require
extensive changes to the event handling as fourth logical button and
up is used for special functionality such as wheel.
Horizontal mouse wheel input capabilities are now checked
and if available mouse buttons 6 and 7 are mapped to the
horizontal wheel for the X11 client.
- make smart-sizing work again which was killed in previous commits
- removed several unnecessary/ugly workarounds
- miscellaneous small fixes
- new feature: restore previous window position when toggling out of
fullscreen mode
- new feature: if /f is specified in combination with /smart-sizing:WxH
we run the session in the /smart-sizing dimensions scaled to full screen
Since several contributers in the past repeatedly made the error
to treat xfc->width and xfc->height as equal with the x11 window
width and heigth I've renamed these variables to sessionWidth and
sessionHeight.
* fixed crash on server-initiated desktop resize and fullscreen toggle with /gdi:sw
* implemented desktop resize for /gdi:sw
* check for availibility of XRender extension and show error messages if a setting would require it
* fixed compile error if xrender devel packages are missing
* fixed bug with server-initiated desktop resize in fullscreen mode
The X11 core protocol does not have support for selection ownership
notifications. Until now xfreerdp worked around this issue by always sending
a format list pdu to the server after sending the format data response pdu
which makes the server side think that the clients clipboard data has changed.
This workaround has some severe drawbacks:
* it causes unnecessary data transfers because even without local clipboard
data changes the same data is always re-transferred over the channel
* with some clipboard managers (in the server sessions) you will get massive
endless data transfer loops because these managers immediately request the
data on clipboard changes.
The correct (core X11) way would be polling for selection ownership changes
which must include the ability to detect changes to the TIMESTAMP target if
the selection owner did not change.
The alternative to the poll based approach is using the X Fixes extension in
order to get selection ownership notifications.
This commit adds support for the XFIXES solution and also moves the complete
clipboard related event handling from xf_event.c to xf_cliprdr.c
