a race condition where the synergy server updates the mouse
position but the synergy hook later receives a mouse update from
before the position change (i.e. out of order).
use Xlib to convert an unmatched keysym to upper and lower case and
use whichever, if any, is not the same as the original keysym.
This supports case conversion in any language that Xlib supports
it in.
mouse behavior on multimonitor windows systems. Those errors
broke synergy on all windows systems running as a server.
Also added an attempt to reduce the occasional jump that can
occur when switching screens when windows is the server.
code in a conditional for moving left that blew an assert verifying
that the mouse position was really on the screen if the neighbor
screen wasn't connected.
After that was fixed there was another problem when one screen
linked to another which then linked (in the same direction) to
itself. If the latter screen wasn't connected then it'd get into
an infinite loop.
It was doing that already if started through synergy but not if
started by something outside of synergy. In particular, if you
use `xscreensaver-command --activate' synergy used to send fake
mouse motion events every 5 seconds to deactivate it. That's
unlikely to be what the user wanted, especially if the locking is
enabled since it would force the password dialog to appear.
As before, it's recommended that client screens not use locking
because xscreensaver will not deactivate without getting a
password even if we make the request through a programmatic
interface. Presumably that's for security reasons but it makes
life harder for synergy.
reported by the synergy hook dll is in a space with 0,0 in the
upper-left which is not necessarily the same as the virtual desktop
space. So the windows primary screen now accounts for that. On
the secondary screen, mouse_event() doesn't seem to accept negative
coordinates even on the windows NT family, making monitors with
negative coordinates inaccessible via absolute moves. So if the
move will be to negative coordinates, use the windows 95 family
fallback of absolute moving to 0,0 then relative moving to the
final position.
and the platform specific implementations to lib/platform.
Added an lib/arch method to query the platform's native wide
character encoding and changed CUnicode to use it. All
platform dependent code is now in lib/arch, lib/platform,
and the programs under cmd. Also added more documentation.
lib/arch. This should make porting easier. Will probably
continue to refactor a little more, moving platform dependent
event handling stuff into lib/platform.
and sending those options to the appropriate client screens.
Currently, two options are supported: halfDuplexCapsLock and
halfDuplexNumLock mark the caps lock and num lock keys,
respectively, as being half-duplex.
the mouse is locked to the screen. We can't tell if a half-
duplex key is physically down and logically down just means
it's active so there's no point in letting it lock the mouse
to the screen.
their state when the screen was entered. Previously when
leaving a client screen the toggle keys kept their state so,
say, caps lock, would remain on. This was inconvenient if
you then used the client's keyboard directly.
from a windows server. Was converting ctrl+alt on windows to
mode switch on the server. No longer doing that; windows clients
will interpret ctrl+alt as AltGr and other clients will just see
ctrl+alt. Also made the right alt key mode switch on windows
servers in case the user wants to force a mode switch, but that
means the right alt key no longer acts as alt on clients.
an internal compiler error; building that file without
optimization works around the compiler bug. Sadly, synergy can
only interact with X windows, not native MacOS windows.
handling read errors at all and error handling for writes was
never being used. Now the socket disconnects if a read or write
fails on the socket for any reason except EINTR. Also added
<netinet/in.h> to includes in CNetwork.h because it's needed on
some platforms.
anyway but isn't implemented in winsock, removed use of INADDR_NONE
which some platforms don't define except on winsock which does
define it, and changed SOL_TCP to IPPROTO_TCP which should work on
more platforms.
more robust now. Also added handling of Super modifier key and
changed windows keys to map to Super instead of Meta, which is
the default on my keyboard.
Made extensive changes to the launcher to provide more control
over setting up auto-start and it now saves configuration to
the user's documents directory if auto-starting at login and
saves to the system directory if auto-starting at boot.
Replaced MapVirtualKey() with table lookup to work around that
function's lack of support for extended keyboard scan codes.
Added first cut at support for AltGr.
warp the mouse to the primary screen. entering the primary
screen causes the primary screen's window to be hidden. the
deadlock occurs because hiding the window seems to post a
message then wait for it to be handled (or possibly it won't
send a message while a posted message is being handled).
thread A locks the mutex, warps the mouse, the hides the window.
thread B begins processing the mouse warp then tries to lock
the mutex. thread A is waiting on the event loop owned by B
while B is waiting on the mutex owned by A. this fix simply
hides the window asynchronously. however, there may be other
ways to cause a similar deadlock that have not been found.
