Instead of using document.write to load scripts, use createElement to
create and append script tags. document.write is problematic in a lot
of situation and in particular is not allowed in a Chrome
extension/packaged app.
Also, in webutil.js, instead of calling init_logging during parsing of
include/webutil.js, rely on the caller to do this. The problem is that
calling init_logging on parse tries to call Util logging functions and
the new model of dynamic load may not having Util loaded by the time
webutil is parsed.
Move all the inline Javascript event handlers from vnc.html to
include/ui.js except the load handler which is moved to
include/start.js). This is on the path towards a Chrome
extension/packaged app since inline Javascript is prohibited in that
situation.
Switch from using cookies to store setting to using localStorage (or
chrome.storage.sync if available in extension/app mode) for the
settings. Also refactor to make the initializing of the setting and
and loading of the UI to be more asynchronous.
Add routines to store/read settings in either localStorage or in
chrome.storage.sync (which is synchronized between browsers for
extensions/apps).
Before using chrome.storage.sync the initSettings routine must to
called setup the intermediate cache which speeds up access and allows
multiple setting changes to be coallesced to avoid hitting storage
change frequency limits/quotas.
- enable sending and receiving of raw array buffers in addition to
strings.
- add a read poll interval and set it to 15ms by default to detect
and handle quickly when a message is pending.
- also, detect a disconnected state and add call registration for
disconnect events.
This change pulls websockify 6d9deda9c5.
Most note worthy changes:
- Pulls in web-socket-js 7677e7a954 which updates to IETF 6455 (from
Hixie)
- Binary support detection and use in include/websock.js
- Add ssl and unix target support
- Add multiple target support via config file/dir.
- Idle timeout exit
Use a simpler method of enabling binary transfer over WebSockets. This
still presents the user of websock.js with a plain javascript array
for the receive queue data. However, if binary support is supported
and requested then the transfer will be raw frames instead of base64
encoded.
Lots of room for optimization here but for now correct is better than
fast.

This will keep copyrect rendering actions in order with tight and tightPNG
rendering actions (otherwise you can get visual image corruption when
they are mixed together).
Warning:
RAW, RRE and HEXTILE still use immediate render commands so there is
still the risk of out-of-order rendering if RAW, RRE, and HEXTILE are
mixed with tight and tightPNG. Copyrect will work with either because
the renderQ_push function will render copyrects immediately if they
are the only thing being pushed on the queue.
The imgQ code in RFB should be a generic rendering queue system in
Display.
The reason for the render queue in the first place is that images
loaded from raw data URI strings aren't immediately ready to display
so we have to wait for them to complete 'loading'. However, when data
URI images are mixed with other types of rendering actions then things
can get out of order. This is the reason for the rendering queue.
Currently this only keeps display actions for tight and tightPNG
related actions in order (because they use a mix of fills, raw pixel
data and data URI images).
This related to https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/145
The real fix is to QEMU so that this doesn't happen which was
submitted as a patch to the mailinglist right before this.
Fixes https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/163
When using an encoding with raw images (tight, tightPNG) we need to
draw those image relative to the viewport so that clipping works when
the viewport isn't at 0, 0.
Unfortunately the values for those duplicate keys are not the same and
I'm not sure which ones are more correct. However, for now, I've
commented out the second occurrence.
This data is generated from /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h using the
utils/u2x11 script.
May window managers have a keyboard shortcut that switch away from the
current desktop (e.g. desktop switcher). Unfortunately, when this
happens, the meta/control keys that are used with the shortcut will
send a down event to the browser, but the up event will never be sent
because the browser no longer has focus at the point when the up event
happens. This can cause weird stuck key issues for VNC clients (not
just noVNC). To get around this, we try and detect when the browser
loses focus and release any keys that are on the keyDownList.
As an aside, if you run into this situation (in noVNC or another VNC
client), you can unstick the state by pressing and releasing the Ctrl,
Shift, Alt, etc.

With last_rect, the rects count can be high until a last_rect
pseudo-encoding is received which messes with the timing stats. So
count up the number of pixels rendered and show timing after the pixel
count reaches the width*height of the screen.
I.e. if the page is https:// then the WebSocket encrypt setting will
default to wss:// (TLS encryption).
Note that since noVNC settings are saved in cookies, this will only
affect first load. If you have already loaded the page, then the
encrypt setting will be whatever you last set it to.

This merges in the fix for https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/70
This changes noVNC to use the preferred color ordering that most VNC
server prefer and that VMWare VNC requires. It's possible this may
break some VNC servers out there in which case we might have to do
something a bit more subtle such as having alternate render functions
for little and big endian color ordering.
Issue: https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/118
Reporter @maxnet also found and suggested the fix.
Probably could be more intelligent/generic by keying off the depth
sent by the server, but this will do for now.

Should address issue https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/107
- Also add ability to force use of web-socket-js using
window.WEB_SOCKET_FORCE_FLASH
- in websock.js, for rQshift*, assume length is the full length if not
specified.
Resolve issue: https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/pull/101
Based on proposal from @mightpenguin:
Matthew Balman <emperor@mightypenguin.org>
If view_only option is set then do not send mouse and keyboard events.
This is not a secure/enforced way to make a client view only. To
enforce view only at the server, most VNC servers support setting
a view only password.
- Remove the images using the old font.
- Simplify the naming of the new control bar icon images.
- Change keyboard input type to 'email'. 'url' type doesn't have
a space bar.
- Some clarifications to main LICENSE.txt file.
- CSS highlighting of buttons when selected.
- Keyboard button tweaked to allow show/hide toggle of keyboard.

Display API change:
- getTile -> startTile (no longer returns a tile)
- setSubTile -> subTile (drop img/tile first parameter)
- putTile -> finishTile (no longer takes img/tile paramter)
The Display tile logic uses canvas image data directly and
caches/reuses a 16x16 imageData tile (for other sizes, the tile is
create for each call). This gives a 30% speedup on Chrome
13 (and no significant change for Firefox 3.6/4.0).
Other:
- Remove rgbxImageFill and cmapImageFill routines.
- Simplify constructor tests and just error if createImageData is not
supported by canvas instead of .
- Remove webkit canvas bug workaround that effects Chrome 7. Chrome
7 usage share is now less than 0.5 percent and the workaround is
ugly. Drop the function wrapping in the constructor and the canvas
flush() routine.
- Remove support for getImageData (Opera 11+ now required)
Update browser support list:
- Chrome 8+ (really any except 7)
- Firefox 3.6+
- Safari 4+
- Opera 11+
- IE9+
- iOS 4.2+
- Make sure that on iOS the clipping setting is always forced to be
enabled.
- Hide the showKeyboard button unless connected.
- Use the URL text entry method and disable autocorrect and
autocapitalize in the show keyboard input box.
Cleanup:
- remove unused changeViewportMeta function from include/ui.js
- remove some debug output and debug CSS.
- rename panel toggle functions and put them in same location in the
code.
- refactor some code from updateState to updateVisualState routine
(renamed from updateSettingsState).
API changes (forward compatible):
- Display: add 'viewport' conf option to turn on and off viewport
mode.
- RFB: add 'viewportDrag' option to enable/disable viewport dragging
mode.
Other:
- Add clip mode setting to default UI. For touch devices, clipping is
forced on.
- Use CSS media queries to adjust visual elements based on screen
size. Especially disconnected logo size/position and button text size.
- Catch page unload while connected and give a confirm dialog.
- Change mouse button selector to a single button that changes between
' ', 'L', 'M', 'R' when clicked (empty means mouse is just being
moved and doesn't send clicks).
- include/ui.js:setViewClip() routine sets the clipping of the
viewport to the current size of the viewport area (if clipping is
enabled).
- include/ui.js:setViewDrag() toggles/enables/disables viewport
dragging mode.
- Add several images for the UI and for Apple devices:
- images/clipboard.png: clipboard menu icon
- images/connect.png: connect menu icon
- images/disconnect.png: disconnect button icon
- images/keyboard.png: show keyboard button
- images/move.png: viewport drag/move toggle button
- images/settings.png: settings menu icon
- images/screen_320x460.png: iOS app/desktop link start image
- images/screen_57x57.png: iOS app icon
- images/screen_700x700.png: full size noVNC image
New routine fbUpdateRequests that builds the update request messages
based on the result of display.getCleanDirtyReset().
- Also, fix fbUpdateRequest to properly accept x,y,xw,yw parameters.
Another firefox issue is that height: 100% is calculated as 100% of
the containing element even when the containing element is the window.
This means that the size of any sibling element shifts the window size
down by that much and causes the vertical scroll bars to appear. This
doesn't happen in Chrome.
- So instead, put a pad element inside the noVNC_screen element that
is the size of the control bar. This is hidden by the control bar,
however, it causes things to be sized correctly.
- Also, rename noVNC_defaultScreen to noVNC_logo.
- Clean some style specification out of the HTML.
For some reason, the position calculation is broken in firefox when
a DOM object in the ancestry change uses padding. So use margin to
shift the view area down.
Part of mobile device support:
https://github.com/kanaka/noVNC/issues/48
The Display object is redefined as a larger display region with
an equal or smaller visible viewport. The size of the full display
region is set/changed using resize(). The viewport is set/changed
using viewportChange().
All exposed routines that draw on the display now take coordinates
that are absolute (relative to the full display region). For example,
the result of fillRect(100, 100, 10, 10, [255,0,0]) will appear in the
canvas at (0,0) if the viewport is set to (100,100).
Details:
- Move the generic part of the viewport code from tests/viewport.html
into include/display.
- Add two new routines to the Display interface:
- viewportChange(deltaX, deltaY, width, height)
- This adjusts the position of the visible viewport and/or the
size of the viewport.
- deltaX and deltaY specify how the position of the viewport
should be shifted. The position of the viewport is clamped
to the full region size (i.e. cannot outside the display
region).
- The clean and dirty regions of the display are updated based
on calls to this routine. For example, if the viewport width
is increased, then there is now a dirty box on the right
side of the viewport. Another example, if the viewport is
shifted down and to the left over the display region, there
are now two dirty boxes: one on the left side and one
on the bottom of the viewport.
- getCleanDirtyReset()
- This returns an object with the clean box and a list of
dirty boxes (that need to be redrawn).
{'cleanBox':
{'x': x, 'y': y, 'w': w, 'h': h},
'dirtyBoxes':
[{'x': x, 'y': y, 'w': w, 'h': h}, ...]
}
- The coordinates in the clean and dirty boxes are absolute
coordinates (relative to the full display region) but they
are clipped to the visible viewport.
- Calling this function also resets the clean rectangle to be
the whole viewport (i.e. nothing visible needs to be redrawn
dirty) so the caller of this routine is responsible for
redrawing any
