Detailed description

Definitions and types common to all parts of the SDK.

Boolean type

Note that vnc_true and vnc_false are guaranteed to be defined as 1 and 0 respectively in all future versions of the SDK. There is no need to explicitly reference these constants, unless you prefer that coding style.

vnc_true

Evaluates to 1.

vnc_false

Evaluates to 0.

typedef int vnc_bool_t

A boolean, valid values are vnc_true and vnc_false.

Status type

Note that vnc_success and vnc_failure are guaranteed to be defined as 1 and 0 respectively in all future versions of the SDK. There is no need to explicitly reference these constants, unless you prefer that coding style; either of these is acceptable:

if (!vnc_Logger_createFileLogger("logfile.txt"))
    handleError();

or:

if (vnc_Logger_createFileLogger("logfile.txt") != vnc_success)
    handleError();

vnc_success

Evaluates to 1.

vnc_failure

Evaluates to 0.

typedef int vnc_status_t

Function return status, valid values are vnc_success and vnc_failure.

Common primitive types

typedef signed char vnc_int8_t
typedef signed short vnc_int16_t
typedef signed int vnc_int32_t
typedef signed long long vnc_int64_t
typedef unsigned char vnc_uint8_t
typedef unsigned short vnc_uint16_t
typedef unsigned int vnc_uint31_t
typedef unsigned int vnc_uint32_t
typedef unsigned long long vnc_uint64_t

Object types

typedef struct vnc_Connection vnc_Connection

Opaque type for a connection, identifying a Viewer connected to a Server.

typedef struct vnc_ConnectionHandler vnc_ConnectionHandler
