# 2022-12-18: Version 0.9.14
|
|
|
|
0.9.14 represents a gradual improvement over 0.9.13 with lots of developments all over
|
|
the place. [40 issues and pull requests](https://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/issues?q=milestone%3A%22Release+0.9.14%22+is%3Aclosed)
|
|
were closed/merged with this release. Highlights on the LibVNCServer side are a
|
|
refined multi-threaded implementation, support for Unicode clipboard data 📋❗ and an
|
|
outbound-connection machinery that works for real world use cases. LibVNCClient received
|
|
support for [SetDesktopSize](https://github.com/rfbproto/rfbproto/blob/master/rfbproto.rst#setdesktopsize)
|
|
(which had been added server-side in 0.9.13) and a properly documented SSH-tunneling
|
|
setup.

# 2020-06-13: Version 0.9.13
|
|
|
|
0.9.13 truly is a cross-platform release, the best we've ever done in that respect:
|
|
Out of the [49 issues](https://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/issues?q=is%3Aclosed+milestone%3A%22Release+0.9.13%22)
|
|
closed with this release, 20 alone were related to MS Windows. The result is that 0.9.13
|
|
is the first release with full support for Microsoft Windows! The cross-platform focused
|
|
work did not end there tough: MacOS support was brought up from barebones to a fully working
|
|
production-grade VNC server application. Other highlights are improvements regarding TLS
|
|
in LibVNCClient, [SetDesktopSize](https://github.com/rfbproto/rfbproto/blob/master/rfbproto.rst#setdesktopsize)
|
|
support in LibVNCServer and a major cleanup of the project's documentation. Last but not
|
|
least, 0.9.13 comes with the usual assortment of bugfixes and security improvements.
|
|
|
|
## Overall changes:
|
|
* Small tweaks to the CMake build system.
|
|
* The macOS server example was overhauled and is now the most feature-complete sample
|
|
application of the project, ready for real-world use.
|
|
* Lots of documentation updates and markdownifying.
|
|
* The TravisCI continuous integration now also build-checks cross-compilation from
|
|
Linux to Windows.
|
|
* Setup a [Gitter community chat](https://gitter.im/LibVNC/libvncserver) for the project.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Both LibVNCServer and LibVNCClient now support an additional platform, namely
|
|
Microsoft Windows. Building is supported with Visual Studio as well as MingGW.
|
|
* The separate crypto routines used by LibVNCClient and LibVNCServer were refactored
|
|
into an implementation common to both libraries.
|
|
* Several security issues got fixed, namely:
|
|
- CVE-2018-21247: When connecting to a repeater, only send initialised string
|
|
- CVE-2019-20839: libvncclient: bail out if unix socket name would overflow
|
|
- CVE-2019-20840: fix crash because of unaligned accesses in hybiReadAndDecode()

|
|
- CVE-2020-14403: encodings: prevent OOB accesses
|
|
- CVE-2020-14404: libvncserver: encodings: prevent OOB accesses
|
|
- CVE-2020-14405: libvncclient/rfbproto: limit max textchat size
|
|
* The bundled noVNC client is now at version 1.1.0 and included via a git submodule.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Added connect timeout as well as read timeout support thanks to Tobias Junghans.
|
|
* Both TLS backends now do proper locking of network operations when multi-threaded
|
|
thanks to Gaurav Ujjwal.
|
|
* Fixed regression in Tight/Raw decoding introduced in 0.9.12 thanks to DRC.
|
|

|
|
|
|
# 2019-01-06: Version 0.9.12
|
|
|
|
Over two years of work have now culminated in 0.9.12. We have ditched
|
|
the legacy Autotools build system in favour of the truly cross-platform
|
|
CMake and extended the continuous integration tests to run MS Windows
|
|
builds as well. LibVNCServer saw quite some memory management issues
|
|
fixed, LibVNCClient received X509 server certificate verification, Tight
|
|
decoding optimizations, support for overriding the default rectangle
|
|
decode handlers and a port of the SDL-based VNC viewer to SDL 2.0. [42
|
|
issues](https://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/issues?q=is%3Aclosed+milestone%3A%22Release+0.9.12%22)
|
|
were fixed with this release.
|
|
|
|
## Overall changes:
|
|
* CMake now is the default build system, Autotools were removed.
|
|
* In addition to TravisCI, all commits are now build-tested by AppVeyorCI.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Numerous build fixes for Visual Studio compilers to the extent that
|
|
one can now _build_ the project with these. The needed changes for
|
|
successfully _running_ stuff will be implemented in 0.9.13.
|
|
* Fixed building for Android and added build instructions.
|
|
* Removed the unused PolarSSL wrapper.
|
|
* Updated the bundled noVNC to latest release 1.0.0.
|
|
* Allowed to use global LZO library instead of miniLZO.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Support for OpenSSL 1.1.x.
|
|
* Support for overriding the default rectangle decode handlers (with
|
|
hardware-accelerated ones for instance) thanks to Balazs Ludmany.
|
|
* vnc2mpg updated.
|
|
* Added support for X509 server certificate verification as part of the
|
|
handshake process thanks to Simon Waterman.
|
|
* Added a TRLE decoder thanks to Wiki Wang.
|
|
* Included Tight decoding optimizations from TurboVNC thanks to DRC.
|
|
* Ported the SDL viewer from SDL 1.2 to SDL 2.0.
|
|
* Numerous security fixes.
|
|
* Added support for custom auth handlers in order to support additional
|
|
security types.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer:
|
|
* Websockets rework to remove obsolete code thanks to Andreas Weigel.
|
|
* Ensured compatibility with gtk-vnc 0.7.0+ thanks to Michał Kępień.
|
|
* The built-in webserver now sends correct MIME type for Javascript.
|
|
* Numerous memory management issues fixed.
|
|
* Made the TightVNC-style file transfer more stable.
|
|
|
|
# 2016-12-30: Version 0.9.11
|
|
|
|
After quite some time finally a major release featuring continous
|
|
integration to make sure the code builds on all supported platforms.
|
|
LibVNCClient saw a lot of robustness fixes making it more stable when
|
|
dealing with broken or malicious servers. LibVNCServer received
|
|
WebSocket improvements, its built-in webserver got more secure and
|
|
systemd support was added.
|
|
|
|
## Overall changes:
|
|
* LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient development now uses continous intregration,
|
|
provided by TravisCI.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Now initializes libgcrypt before use if the application did not do it.
|
|
Fixes a crash when connection to Mac hosts
|
|
(https://github.com/LibVNC/libvncserver/issues/45).
|
|
* Various fixes that result in more stable handling of malicious or broken
|
|
servers.
|
|
* Removed broken and unmaintained H264 decoding.
|
|
* Some documentation fixes.
|
|
* Added hooks to WriteToTLS() for optional protection by mutex.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer:
|
|
* Stability fixes for the WebSocket implementation.
|
|
* Replaced SHA1 implementation with the one from RFC 6234.
|
|
* The built-in HTTP server does not allow directory traversals anymore.
|
|
* The built-in HTTP now sends correct MIME types for CSS and SVG.
|
|
* Added support for systemd socket activation.
|
|
* Made it possible to get autoPort behavior with either ipv4 or ipv6
|
|
disabled.
|
|
* Fixed starting of an onHold-client in threaded mode.
|
|
|
|
# 2014-10-21: Version 0.9.10
|
|
|
|
Another major release that saw a massive code re-organisation, merged
|
|
some Debian patches, addressed some security issues and fixed building
|
|
on Windows 8.
|
|
|
|
## Overall changes:
|
|
* Moved the whole project from sourceforge to https://libvnc.github.io/.
|
|
* Cleaned out the autotools build system which now uses autoreconf.
|
|
* Updated noVNC HTML5 client to latest version.
|
|
* Split out x11vnc sources into separate repository at
|
|
https://github.com/LibVNC/x11vnc
|
|
* Split out vncterm sources into separate repository at
|
|
https://github.com/LibVNC/vncterm
|
|
* Split out VisualNaCro sources into separate repository at
|
|
https://github.com/LibVNC/VisualNaCro
|
|
* Merged Debian patches.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Fixed some security-related buffer overflow cases.
|
|
* Added compatibility headers to make LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient build on native
|
|
Windows 8.
|
|
* Update LZO to version 2.07, fixing CVE-2014-4607.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer:
|
|
* Merged patches from KDE/krfb.
|
|
* Can now do IPv6 without IPv4.
|
|
* Fixed a use-after-free issue in scale.c.
|
|
|
|
# 2012-05-04: Version 0.9.9
|
|
|
|
This is a major release that contains numerous bugfixes and a nice bag
|
|
of shiny new features, mainly full IPv6 support, the new TurboVNC
|
|
encoder and support for WebSockets.
|
|
|
|
## Overall changes:
|
|
* Added noVNC HTML5 VNC viewer (http://kanaka.github.com/noVNC/) connect possibility
|
|
to our http server. Pure JavaScript, no Java plugin required anymore! (But a
|
|
recent browser...)
|
|
* Added a GTK+ VNC viewer example.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Added support to build for Google Android.
|
|
* Complete IPv6 support in both LibVNCServer and LibVNCClient.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer:
|
|
* Split two event-loop related functions out of the rfbProcessEvents() mechanism.
|
|
This is required to be able to do proper event loop integration with Qt. Idea was
|
|
taken from Vino's libvncserver fork.
|
|
* Added TightPNG (http://wiki.qemu.org/VNC_Tight_PNG) encoding support. Like the
|
|
original Tight encoding, this still uses JPEG, but ZLIB encoded rects are encoded
|
|
with PNG here.
|
|
* Added suport for serving VNC sessions through WebSockets
|
|
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebSocket), a web technology providing for multiplexing
|
|
bi-directional, full-duplex communications channels over a single TCP connection.
|
|
* Support connections from the Mac OS X built-in VNC client to LibVNCServer
|
|
instances running with no password.
|
|
* Replaced the Tight encoder with a TurboVNC one which is tremendously faster in most
|
|
cases, especially with high-color video or 3D workloads.
|
|
(http://www.virtualgl.org/pmwiki/uploads/About/tighttoturbo.pdf)
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Added support to only listen for reverse connections on a specific IP address.
|
|
* Support for using OpenSSL instead of GnuTLS. This could come in handy on embedded
|
|
devices where only this TLS implementation is available.
|
|
* Added support to connect to UltraVNC Single Click servers.
|
|
|
|
# 2011-11-09: Version 0.9.8.2
|
|
|
|
This is a maintenance release that fixes a regression in libvncclient
|
|
that crept in with Apple Remote Desktop support added with 0.9.8.
|
|
Viewers that were not adapted to the new functionality would fail
|
|
connecting to ARD servers before.
|
|
|
|
# 2011-10-12: Version 0.9.8.1
|
|
|
|
This is a maintenance release that fixes an ABI compatibility issue
|
|
introduced with 0.9.8.
|
|
|
|
# 2011-03-30: Version 0.9.8
|
|
|
|
## Overall changes:
|
|
* Automagically generated API documentation using doxygen.
|
|
* Added support for pkg-config.
|
|
* Fixed Mingw32 cross compilation.
|
|
* Fixed CMake build system.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient:
|
|
* All files used by _both_ LibVNCServer and LibVNCClient were put into
|
|
a 'common' directory, reducing code duplication.
|
|
* Implemented xvp VNC extension.
|
|
* Updated minilzo library used for Ultra encoding to ver 2.04.
|
|
According to the minilzo README, this brings a significant
|
|
speedup on 64-bit architectures.
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCServer:
|
|
* Thread safety for ZRLE, Zlib, Tight, RRE, CoRRE and Ultra encodings.
|
|
This makes all VNC encodings safe to use with a multithreaded server.
|
|
* A DisplayFinishedHook for LibVNCServer. If set, this hook gets called
|
|
just before rfbSendFrameBufferUpdate() returns.
|
|
* Fix for tight security type for RFB 3.8 in TightVNC file transfer
|
|
(Debian Bug #517422).
|
|
|
|
## LibVNCClient:
|
|
* Unix sockets support.
|
|
* Anonymous TLS security type support.
|
|
* VeNCrypt security type support.
|
|
* MSLogon security type support.
|
|
* ARD (Apple Remote Desktop) security type support.
|
|
* UltraVNC Repeater support.
|
|
* A new FinishedFrameBufferUpdate callback that is invoked after each
|
|
complete framebuffer update.
|
|
* A new non-forking listen (reverse VNC) function that works under
|
|
Windows.
|
|
* IPv6 support. LibVNCClient is now able to connect to IPv6 VNC servers.
|
|
* IP QoS support. This enables setting the DSCP/Traffic Class field of
|
|
IP/IPv6 packets sent by a client. For example starting a client with
|
|
-qosdscp 184 marks all outgoing traffic for expedited forwarding.
|
|
Implementation for Win32 is still a TODO, though.
|
|
* Fixed hostname resolution problems under Windows.
|
|
|
|
## SDLvncviewer
|
|
* Is now resizable and can do key repeat, mouse wheel scrolling
|
|
and clipboard copy and paste.
|
|
|
|
## LinuxVNC:
|
|
* Fix for no input possible because of ctrl key being stuck.
|
|
Issue was reported as Debian bug #555988.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# Version 0.9.7
|
|
* Mark sent me patches to no longer need C++ for ZRLE encoding!
|
|
added --disable-cxx Option for configure
|
|
* x11vnc changes from Karl Runge:
|
|
- Changed all those whimpy printf(...)'s into manly fprintf(stdxxx,...)'s.
|
|
|
|
- Added -q switch (quiet) to suppress printing all the debug-looking output.
|
|
|
|
- Added -bg switch to fork into background after everything is set up.
|
|
(checks for LIBVNCSERVER_HAVE_FORK and LIBVNCSERVER_HAVE_SETSID)
|
|
|
|
- Print this string out to stdout: 'PORT=XXXX' (usually XXXX = 5900).
|
|
Combining with -bg, easy to write a ssh/rsh wrapper with something like:
|
|
port=`ssh $host "x11vnc -bg .."` then run vncviewer based on $port output.
|
|
(tunneling the vnc traffic through ssh a bit more messy, but doable)
|
|
|
|
- Quite a bit of code to be more careful when doing 8bpp indexed color, e.g.
|
|
not assuming NCOLORS is 256, handling 8bit TrueColor and Direct Color, etc
|
|
(I did all this probably in April, not quite clear in my mind now, but
|
|
I did test it out a fair amount on my old Sparcstation 20 wrt a user's
|
|
questions).
|
|
|
|
* introduce rfbErr for Errors (Erik)
|
|
* make rfbLog overridable (suggested by Erik)
|
|
* don't reutrn on EINTR in WriteExact()/ReadExact() (suggested by Erik)

|
|
name clashes (also suggested by Erik)
|
|
* transformed Bool, KeySym, Pixel to rfbBool, rfbKeySym, rfbPixel
|
|
(as suggested by Erik)
|
|
* purged exit() calls (suggested by Erik)
|
|
* fixed bug with maxRectsPerUpdate and Tight Encoding (these are incompatible)
|
|
* checked sync with TightVNC 1.2.8:
|
|
* viewonly/full passwords; if given a list, only the first is a full one

|
|
* http options in cargs
|
|
* when closing a client and no longer listening for new ones, don't crash

|
|
through autoconf based methods

# 2005-09-29
|
|
|
|
LibVNCServer now sports a brand new method to extend the protocol,
|
|
thanks to Rohit Kumar! He also extended the library to support RFB 3.7.
|
|
Furthermore, he contributed TightVNC file transfer protocol support to
|
|
LibVNCServer!
|
|
|
|
# 2005-05-25
|
|
|
|
LibVNCClient now features ZRLE decoding!
|
|

|
# 2005-05-15
|
|
|
|
Another round of valgrinding completed. This time it is augmented by
|
|
changes instigated by using Linus' sparse. In the course, the complete
|
|
sources were converted to ANSI C.
|
|
|
|
# 2005-05-07
|
|
|
|
The member socketInitDone was renamed to socketState, and no longer
|
|
contains a bool value. This allows us to quit a server cleanly from the
|
|
event loop via rfbShutdownServer(), so that the structures can be
|
|
cleaned up properly. This is demonstrated in examples/example.c.
|
|
|
|
# 2005-01-21

The function rfbMakeMaskFromAlphaSource() applies a Floyd-Steinberg

|
dither to approximate a binary mask from a cursor with alpha channel. A
|
|
demonstration can be found in test/cursortest.c.

Karl Runge has done awesome work to support cursors with alpha blending!
|
|
You can try it with x11vnc as in CVS, or wait a few more days for x11vnc
|
|
to be released officially!

Happy new year! It begins with a new macro recorder based on
|
|
LibVNCServer/LibVNCClient using perl as script language. The macro
|
|
recorder is itself written in perl, and writes out perl scripts, acting
|
|
as a VNC proxy, so that you can connect a vncviewer to it, and it
|
|
records all your input, possibly looking for a certain button, image,
|
|
word, etc. before continuing. I called it VisualNaCro, and it's in CVS.

# 2004-12-20: Version 0.7
|
|
|
|
Just before christmas, a new release! Version 0.7 brings you the first
|
|
non-beta of LibVNCServer...
|
|
|
|
# 2004-12-02
|
|
|
|
Finally MinGW32 support. I only had problems with a vncviewer which
|
|
wouldn't connect to localhost: I use SDLvncviewer...
|
|
|
|
# 2004-12-01
|
|
|
|
LibVNCClient is getting better and better... Expect a very powerful
|
|
client soon!
|
|
|
|
# 2004-10-16
|
|
|
|
LibVNCServer has automated test, thanks to LibVNCClient (included). It
|
|
doesn't do ZRLE yet, and exposed some bugs, the only remaining of these
|
|
is CoRRE (not sure yet if it's a bug in the client or the server).
|
|
|
|
# 2004-09-14
|
|
|
|
Added success stories.
|
|
|
|
# 2004-09-07
|
|
|
|
The API was cleaned up. The structures and functions now have a prefix
|
|
(mostly "rfb", sometimes "zrle" or "sra") in order not to clutter
|
|
the namespace, while the structure's members don't need such a prefix.
|
|

I finally came around to fix mouse behaviour in QEMU\'s VNC frontend for
|
|
Windows 98. Please find the patch [here](https://libvnc.github.io/oldstuff/qemu.tar.gz).
|
|
If mouse behaves strangely, try to wiggle the pointer to a free spot on the
|
|
desktop, hit Ctrl+Shift and release them. After that, the mouse should
|
|
behave nicely.
|
|
|
|
# 2004-06-07
|
|
|
|
After silently being added almost a year ago, libvncclient's API was
|
|
modified for real use, and three examples were added: ppmtest (a very
|
|
simple demo), SDLvncviewer, and vnc2mpg (which lets you record your VNC
|
|
session to a movie). Automated regression tests of the libraries are
|
|
planned.

[x11vnc](http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/)-0.6.1 was released! This
|
|
reflects the long way the original, small example has gone, improved in
|
|
many possible ways and having a broad user base.
|
|
|
|
# 2004-05-29
|
|
|
|
Some [patches](https://libvnc.github.io/oldstuff/qemu.tar.gz) were created for
|
|
[QEMU](http://qemu.org/), a FAST! emulator by Fabrice Bellard, to
|
|
control those sessions with a vncviewer.
|
|
|
|
# 2004-02-29

LibVNCServer is listed as a project using
|
|
[Valgrind](http://valgrind.org/)!
|
|
|
|
# 2003-11-07: Version 0.6
|
|
|
|
Version 0.6 is out! x11vnc performance boosts! You no longer need a c++
|
|
compiler in order to have ZRLE coding! LinuxVNC was added (This is to
|
|
the text console what x11vnc is to X11)!
|
|

rdp2vnc is in rdesktop's CVS.
|
|
|
|
# 2003-02-19
|
|
|
|
A preliminary patch for rdesktop (CVS) to make rdp2vnc, a translator
|
|
from Windows Terminal Server's protocol to VNC's protocol, is
|
|
[available](https://libvnc.github.io/oldstuff/rdesktop-cvs+vnc.diff.gz). It needs a new version of
|
|
libvncserver; try CVS until I release 0.6.
|
|
|
|
|
|
# 2003-02-09: Version 0.5
|
|
|
|
Version 0.5 is out! Features include autoconf based configure, rpm
|
|
package (YMMV), cleanup of directory structure, NEW x11vnc! ZRLE
|
|
encoding! HTTP tunnelling through LibVNCServer's HTTP support! Many bug
|
|
fixes!
|
|
|
|
* rpm packaging through autoconf
|
|
* autoconf'ed the whole package (including optional support for zlib,
|
|
pthreads and libjpeg as well as zrle/c++)
|
|
* moved appropriate files to contrib/ and examples/ respectively
|
|
* fixed long standing cargs bug (Justin "Zippy" Dearing)
|
|
* Even better x11vnc from Karl J. Runge! (supports different kbd layouts of
|
|
client/server)
|
|
* Better x11vnc from Karl J. Runge!
|
|
* fixed severe bug (Const Kaplinsky)
|
|
* got patch from Const Kaplisnky with CursorPosUpdate encoding and some Docs
|
|
* sync'ed with newest RealVNC (ZRLE encoding)
|
|
* a HTTP request for tunnelling was added (to fool strict web proxies)
|
|
* sync'ed with TightVNC 1.2.5
|
|
|
|
|
|
# 2002-07-28: Version 0.4
|
|
|
|
Version 0.4 is out! Biggest feature: NewFB encoding. Quite a few
|
|
bugfixes also (Thanks to all!).
|
|
|
|
* support for NewFB from Const Kaplinsky
|
|
* memory leaks squashed (localtime pseudo leak is still there :-)
|
|
* small improvements for OSXvnc (still not working correctly)
|
|
* synced with TightVNC 1.2.3
|
|
* solaris compile cleanups
|
|
* many x11vnc improvements
|
|
* added backchannel, an encoding which needs special clients to pass
|
|
arbitrary data to the client
|
|
* changes from Tim Jansen regarding multi threading and client blocking
|
|
as well as C++ compliancy
|
|
* x11vnc can be controlled by starting again with special options if compiling
|
|
with LOCAL_CONTROL defined
|
|
|
|
# Version 0.3
|
|
* added x11vnc, a x0rfbserver clone
|
|
* regard deferUpdateTime in processEvents, if usec<0
|
|
* initialize deferUpdateTime (memory "leak"!)
|
|
* changed command line handling (arguments are parsed and then removed)
|
|
* added very simple example: zippy
|
|
* added rfbDrawLine, rfbDrawPixel
|
|

# 2001-12-14

|
|
|
A new version of [rdesktop+vnc](https://libvnc.github.io/oldstuff/rdesktop-1.1.0+vnc-0.2.tar.gz) is
|
|
available! (Includes support for other platforms keyboard mapping with
|
|
plain rdesktop!)
|
|
|
|
# 2001-10-23
|
|
|
|
Added a link to my homepage at the end.
|
|
|
|
# 2001-10-18
|
|
|
|
I released the rdp2vnc extensions as well as patches for general
|
|
keyboard handling, working inside Xvnc and `process_text2` (the famous
|
|
"font:" error) to rdesktop. Please find it on the [download
|
|
page](http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=32584).
|
|
|
|
# Version 0.2
|
|
* inserted a deferUpdate mechanism (X11 independent).
|
|
* removed deletion of requestedRegion
|
|
* added rfbLoadConsoleFont
|
|
* fixed font colour handling.
|
|
* added rfbSelectBox
|
|
* added rfbDrawCharWithClip to allow for clipping and a background colour.
|
|
* fixed font colours
|
|
* added rfbFillRect
|
|
* added IO function to check password.
|
|
* rfbNewClient now sets the socket in the fd_set (for the select() call)
|
|
* when compiling the library with HAVE_PTHREADS and an application
|
|
which includes "rfb.h" without, the structures got mixed up.
|
|
So, the pthreads section is now always at the end, and also
|
|
you get a linker error for rfbInitServer when using two different
|
|
pthread setups.
|
|
* fixed two deadlocks: when setting a cursor and when using CopyRect
|
|
* fixed CopyRect when copying modified regions (they lost the modified
|
|
property)
|
|
* WIN32 target compiles and works for example :-)
|
|
* fixed CopyRect (was using the wrong order of rectangles...)
|
|
should also work with pthreads, because copyrects are
|
|
always sent immediately (so that two consecutive copy rects
|
|
cannot conflict).
|
|
* changed rfbUndrawCursor(rfbClientPtr) to (rfbScreenInfoPtr), because
|
|
this makes more sense!
|
|
* flag backgroundLoop in rfbScreenInfo (if having pthreads)
|
|
* CopyRect & CopyRegion were implemented.
|
|
if you use a rfbDoCopyR* function, it copies the data in the
|
|
framebuffer. If you prefer to do that yourself, use rfbScheduleCopyR*
|
|
instead; this doesn't modify the frameBuffer.
|
|
* added flag to optionally not send XCursor updates, but only RichCursor,
|
|
or if that is not possible, fall back to server side cursor.
|
|
This is useful if your cursor has many nice colours.
|
|
* fixed java viewer on server side:
|
|
SendCursorUpdate would send data even before the client pixel format
|
|
was set, but the java applet doesn't like the server's format.
|
|
* fixed two pthread issues:
|
|
rfbSendFramebuffer was sent by a ProcessClientMessage function
|
|
(unprotected by updateMutex).
|
|
cursor coordinates were set without protection by cursorMutex
|
|
* source is now equivalent to TridiaVNC 1.2.1
|
|
* pthreads now work (use iterators!)
|
|
* cursors are supported (rfbSetCursor automatically undraws cursor)
|
|
* support for 3 bytes/pixel (slow!)
|
|
* server side colourmap support
|
|
* fixed rfbCloseClient not to close the connection (pthreads!)
|
|
this is done lazily (and with proper signalling).
|
|
* cleaned up mac.c (from original OSXvnc); now compiles (untested!)
|
|
* compiles cleanly on Linux, IRIX, BSD, Apple (Darwin)
|
|
* fixed prototypes
|
