Hi all, I'm working on a simple C++ application (dbus-service) which can start/stop another application ( a vnc viewer application ). My platform is arm-linux with wayland + ivi-shell. Now I am able to start / stop the x11 vncviewer application one instance. Needed to add desktop-app entries in weston.ini. I'm using LayerManagerControl commands to manage the window ( at present - further on ilm API's shall be used. )
Now my next use case is multiple instances of this vnc viewer application. And for that I added few more desktop-app entries to weston.ini, and updated the service to launch multiple instances of vnc viewer. I am able to launch multiple instances of vncviewer. But to control those instances, I need to know which instance is assigned which surface ID. Another look at ilm api's led me to surface-property's creator-PID field. Unfortunately with xwayland, for x11 apps this field contains PID of xwayland instance and not the actual x11 app. I looked at libweston as well as xwayland-api, but not able to see a clear solution. Please suggest any way to obtain this mapping of surface ID and process ID for x11 apps with xwayland.
