Hi all,
Suppose we would want to use clutter as if it was some new kind of X-server.
How far are we from making it possible ?
Conceptually, we want to have the legacy clutter_main() run in a server
process, and have several application-client processes doing clutter
calls asynchronously.
The clutter calls would have to be re-implemented on the client side to
send some RPC requests instead.
And clutter_main() would be re-implemented on the client side to mostly
listen to signals and call the application callbacks (sorry: closures).
On the server-side, a dispatch thread would be responsible for calling
the legacy clutter calls.
1. Is this in clutter's roadmap ?
2. Can we be pointed to some utility that would transparently distribute
glib calls into a client-server architecture with IPC calls ? We thought
of rpcgen, but we wish we would have something that generates rpcgen IDL
from the clutter headers.
3. Are there some CORBA-like layers for glibmm to do the
client-server-ization at the C++ level ?
Thanks,
Michael
