Hi Kevin,
I started doing this - integrating calls to TurboVNC's Java VncViewer into our
own custom GUI. I could give you access to some code (shared under GPL) if you
like, but my Java project was abandoned, so there are no guarantees about the
current state of the code.
I started out by doing exactly what you are doing - calling the VncViewer
constructor, but I later found that doing so didn't give me enough flexibility,
because I wanted to be able to display the TurboVNC Java Viewer's options
dialog first from the main GUI thread, and then do the actual VNC connection
later on in my login thread.
Basically, I split up the com.turbovnc.vncviewer.CConn class's constructor, so
that it was possible to do a more minimal initialization of a CConn object to
enable the OptionsDialogCallback methods, and then run the rest of the
initialization later.
So my VNC connection thread ended up looking like this (including code
blatantly copied from the com.turbovnc.vncviewer.VncViewer class of course):
Thread turboVncThread = new Thread() {
public void run() {
turboVncConnection.opts.serverName = "localhost::" +
turboVncConnection.opts.tunnelLocalPort;
try {
turboVncConnection.initCConn(MyAppMainFrame.turboVncViewer, null);
while (!turboVncConnection.shuttingDown())
turboVncConnection.processMsg(false);
System.exit(0);
}
catch(com.turbovnc.rdr.EndOfStream e) {
System.exit(0);
}
turboVncConnection.reset();
System.gc();
}
};
MyAppMainFrame.turboVncViewer.nViewers++;
turboVncThread.start();
Cheers,
James
