#include <rfb/rfb.h> /** * @example backchannel.c * This is a simple example demonstrating a protocol extension. * * The "back channel" permits sending commands between client and server. * It works by sending plain text messages. * * As suggested in the RFB protocol, the back channel is enabled by asking * for a "pseudo encoding", and enabling the back channel on the client side * as soon as it gets a back channel message from the server. * * This implements the server part. * * Note: If you design your own extension and want it to be useful for others, * too, you should make sure that * * - your server as well as your client can speak to other clients and * servers respectively (i.e. they are nice if they are talking to a * program which does not know about your extension). * * - if the machine is little endian, all 16-bit and 32-bit integers are * swapped before they are sent and after they are received. * */ #define rfbBackChannel 155 typedef struct backChannelMsg { uint8_t type; uint8_t pad1; uint16_t pad2; uint32_t size; } backChannelMsg; rfbBool enableBackChannel(rfbClientPtr cl, void** data, int encoding) { if(encoding == rfbBackChannel) { backChannelMsg msg; const char* text="Server acknowledges back channel encoding\n"; uint32_t length = strlen(text)+1; int n; rfbLog("Enabling the back channel\n"); msg.type = rfbBackChannel; msg.size = Swap32IfLE(length); if((n = rfbWriteExact(cl, (char*)&msg, sizeof(msg))) <= 0 || (n = rfbWriteExact(cl, text, length)) <= 0) { rfbLogPerror("enableBackChannel: write"); } return TRUE; } return FALSE; } static rfbBool handleBackChannelMessage(rfbClientPtr cl, void* data, const rfbClientToServerMsg* message) { if(message->type == rfbBackChannel) { backChannelMsg msg; char* text; int n; if((n = rfbReadExact(cl, ((char*)&msg)+1, sizeof(backChannelMsg)-1)) <= 0) { if(n != 0) rfbLogPerror("handleBackChannelMessage: read"); rfbCloseClient(cl); return TRUE; } msg.size = Swap32IfLE(msg.size); if((text = malloc(msg.size)) == NULL) { rfbErr("Could not allocate %d bytes\n", msg.size); return TRUE; } if((n = rfbReadExact(cl, text, msg.size)) <= 0) { if(n != 0) rfbLogPerror("handleBackChannelMessage: read"); rfbCloseClient(cl); return TRUE; } rfbLog("got message:\n%s\n", text); free(text); return TRUE; } return FALSE; } static int backChannelEncodings[] = {rfbBackChannel, 0}; static rfbProtocolExtension backChannelExtension = { NULL, /* newClient */ NULL, /* init */ backChannelEncodings, /* pseudoEncodings */ enableBackChannel, /* enablePseudoEncoding */ handleBackChannelMessage, /* handleMessage */ NULL, /* close */ NULL, /* usage */ NULL, /* processArgument */ NULL /* next extension */ }; int main(int argc,char** argv) { rfbScreenInfoPtr server; rfbRegisterProtocolExtension(&backChannelExtension); server=rfbGetScreen(&argc,argv,400,300,8,3,4); if(!server) return 0; server->frameBuffer=(char*)malloc(400*300*4); rfbInitServer(server); rfbRunEventLoop(server,-1,FALSE); return(0); }
