Hi Michael,

I cannot see a scenario where it would make sense to run a ULC-based
application on a Citrix server. Please let me know of the scenario you
were thinking of.

Running the server part of a ULC-based application on a Citrix terminal
server makes little sense
because ULC follows an entirely different approach to Citrix. ULC runs in
"Headless" mode on the server so as far as ULC server is concerned there
is nothing for Citirx to display!

Citrix runs an application's entire image on the server and communicates
with the client-side display engine on the level of framebuffers, i.e. on
the level of pixels. The server maintains the entire UI including the
visual representation.

ULC runs a "faceless" UI on the server side that represents its objects on
the level of (logical) widgets. The communication between client and
server works on the level of (logical) widgets and not on the level of
framebuffers.

It is the ULC Client that renders the GUI of the ULC application on the
server. If Citrix wants to show ULC GUI then it should be connecting to
ULC client which in turn is connected to ULC app on server. So you can see
that such a scenario does not make sense at all.


Thanks and regards,

Janak

        Hello all

        Does anybody have experiences with ULC on the client side on
Citrix? We got a customer request for that. I guess it should not be
problematic, but one never knows J

        Kind regards
