The following API changes may affect integrators:
- Settings have been moved out of the RFB.connect() call. Each
setting now has it's own setter function: setEncrypt, setBase64,
setTrueColor, setCursor.
- Encrypt and cursor settings now default to on.
- CSS changes:
- VNC_status_bar for input buttons switched to a element class.
- VNC_buttons split into VNC_buttons_right and
VNC_buttons_left
- New id styles for VNC_settings_menu and VNC_setting
Note: the encrypt, true_color and cursor, logging setting can all be
set on load using query string variables (in addition to host, port
and password).
Client cursor (cursor pseudo-encoding) support has been polished and
activated.
The RFB settings are now presented as radio button list items in
a drop-down "Settings" menu when using the default controls.
Also, in the settings menu is the ability to select between alternate
style-sheets.
Cookie and stylesheet selection support added to util.js.
To change the appearance of the cursor, we use the CSS cursor style
and set the url to a data URI scheme. The image data sent via the
cursor pseudo-encoding has to be encoded to a CUR format file before
being used in the data URI.
During Canvas initialization we try and set a simple cursor to see if
the browser has support. Opera is missing support for data URI scheme
in cursor URLs.
Disabled for now until we have a better way of specifying settings
overall (too many settings for control bar now).
Util.Debug, Util.Info, Util.Warn, Util.Error routines instead of
direct calls to console.*. Add "logging=XXX" query variable that sets
the logging level (default is "warn").
Logging values:
debug: code debug logging (many calls in performance path are also
commented for performance reasons).
info: informative messages including timing information.
warn: significant events
error: something has gone wrong
Some basic functions from mootools implemented in util.js.
Also, some more DOM separation. Move clipboard focus logic into
default_controls and canvas and out of vnc.js.
JSLint cleanup.
- All state/status updates go through updateState routine which
updates the status line also.
- Old firefox (and opera) don't support canvas createImageData, so use
getImageData as replacement.
- Add console.warn and console.error stubs so that firefox without
firebug doesn't crap out.
- If no WebSockets then error if no flash or if URL is location (flash
will refuse to load the object for security reasons).
