Hi,
I'm trying to embedded the Java VNC client into another application. (I
realize VNC server's have a default Java interface, but this is going to be
a different UI).
I had already built the sample code and ran from a java command line and it
connected to my VNC server fine.
I was able to convert the code and build it into my application (i.e.
removed applet reference, changed main class to a constructor, dealt with
parameter issues, etc.).
Everything works fine - and I connect to the socket successfully. However,
on the first data read:
// RfbProto.java
void readVersionMsg() throws IOException {
byte[] b = new byte[12];
thread hangs here---> is.readFully(b);
The thread just stops here. I see a System.out statement right above it,
but not the one below, no longer how long I wait. Obviously, nothing is
getting sent back here. I've only changed the VNCViewer code. The rest of
the application works fine. Anyone have any ideas? Note: This is actually
the TightVNC code base, but I've tried it with both and had the same
problem.
