WAVNCController example...

LawsonEnglish
Can anyone point me to a simple WAVNCController example?

and, if I subclassed the RFB server to render to an offscreen buffer
instead of the vnc stream, could I reuse much of the RFB server code for
a rendering plugin just by handing my subclass a memory pointer to
render to?


If that makes sense...

I don't think I understand you question.

This class you mention comes with Seaside in Pharo and can be found
registerd as application at <http://localhost:8080/seaside/tools/vnc>.
Note that you will only see it if the RFB server has been loaded
before Seaside.

Not surprising since I didn't understand what I was asking either! :-/

Thanks for that explanation. I can see that it isn't doing quite what I
thought, though being able to evoke VNC via a webpage is obviously
useful in many situations.

In my case, what I'm hoping to do is use seaside as a localhost server
that will interact with the Second Life media plugins and serve  
VNC-like services for specific applications (e.g. drawing tool) based on
which URL is evoked within Second Life. I misunderstood what
WAVNCController was doing (somehow I thought it made a specific
WAComponent interact with the VNC server, rather than the whole of Pharo).

The plan is to provide whiteboard services via Squeak to Second Life
(ala Croquet's capability) but only with specific individuals while the
rest of the Second Life audience merely observes a live stream (QT movie
or whatever) of the output of the whiteboard.  This should scale far
better than pure VNC does, assuming I can figure out how to serve the
VNC visual data to a generic media server.

There's lots of potential here, if only I knew what I was doing (or
understood what I was reading).,.
