UltraVNC

No, the server's tray icon becomes unresponsive during a file transfer from server to viewer. If a user on the server clicks on winvnc icon, the menu pops, but doesn't respond until the file transfer is done. But the user on the server side doesn't know a FT is happening, just that the menu is broken.

When vncviewer receives a file, the server doesn't respond to messages on the tray icon. Usually it will pop up the menu and then its dead until the file transfer ends. The message loop in vncmenu calls pClient->SendFileChunk() which posts a message back to the same window. So it looks like other ...

The viewer never gets any screen updates.
Options m_Shared only seems to be used to send clientInitShared flag to the server, but if that flag isn't sent, the viewer still doesn't get updates (so the problem is on viewer).
I've looked at every use of m_Shared, but it must affect something else to ...

The good news is that these code changes work, the cleanup when a file was transferred is good.
The bad news is it works in debug build but release with optimizations on still crashes on memory reference.

Thanks for the quick help
How can I submit changes I've made?

I added some more code to clean up when a file transfer is going on.
When I build a release, the network interruption still causes a crash. After lots of angst, I found that turning optimizations off in release build makes this problem go away.
How would you like to have code changes submitted?

More info, building on vs 2012, testing on win 7 & 8
when options dialog is open, or a file transfer is active, the network disruption causes crash or hang.
When just the file transfer dialog is open it does shut down clean if you know the error dialog is behind the ft dialog.

Hi,
I'm a developer, working on fixing this problem:
If the server is killed or the network disconnects, etc. vncviewer cleans up properly unless a dialog is open. If the file transfer or options dialog is open, the shutdown logic crashes. The WM_CLOSE seems to delete some objects when they still ...

The remote screen blanking works correctly on windows 7, but in my testing on windows 8, it doesn't work.
When the remote screen gets the eye bmp, that's what the viewer also sees.
In all combinations of options, the remote mouse is working.
So the mouse is unaffected and the screen sharing is ...
