vnc launch

[Prisma]

EDIT: It's continuing. Between 1 good repeater query 1 or 2 queries fail exact as attached above. I suspect the caching algorithm.

Thanks for the longname + refresh FIX!

In case you find some time...may suggest the following improvements:
- <Enter>-key on Tree-Element should initiate connection (like doublelick)
- allow blanks/spaces in passwords (currently they break the ability to connect -> double-quotes around the password are needed)
- allow groups/sub-categories under "SERVERS"-Tree using subfolders in the "/uvnc/" folder
(could be easily managed by manual creation of directories and moving *.vnc files into these subdirectories using windows explorer)

(Another thing would be a tiny search function which let you search after keywords/parts in the *.vnc filenames...but I think that's not that easy...)

Is there any way to temporary disable/hide the console window (commandline parameter / ini option)?

prisma:
fixed, bad caching when first id checked didn't existed.

sky:
fixed space in passwd
added enter
added folders/subfolders.... complex source (rename/delete/dbclick/enter/connect..All needed to be changed to use a dynamic folder instead of the fix uvnc.... need to be tested again, 250 spots changed)

console stay while debug, later it wil be disabled or activated via a commandline switch.

There was also some error in the passwd/encryption... WCHAR/CHAR mistake.
POssible this require to reset correct passwords.

Thank you very much - especially for going through the hassle with fixed vs. dynamic-folder thing allowing /uvnc/subfolder/ for vnc-connection files!

Played around with the new version and couldn't find dealbreaker of any kind. Anyway here are my findings:
- <enter>-key now starts connection but generates a sound/bell (same sound like entering more than 8 chars in viewer password-request window)
- reload servers: Tree gets collapsed (you have to click on [+] to re-expand the tree-folders)
- /uvnc/subfolder/: ContextMenu "rename" works
- /uvnc/subfolder/: ContextMenu "Add" creates vnc-file in main uvnc-folder=SERVERS-Tree (and not in selected subfolder)
- /uvnc/subfolder/: ContextMenu "Delete" does not work (nothing happens)
- launcher scans /uvnc/ folder every 20 seconds...intended? (it shows newly copied *.vnc connections in tree without reload, but the online/offline state-icon-assignment gets puzzled until the next online/offline-scan)
- adding new connection -> filename dialog: set focus on/cursor into the filename-field

(regarding the /uvnc/subfolder/: don't get me wrong, you said you won't support management of the connections in these subfolder, so I don't expect you to add these functions/fix them...just tested them. )

managment = drag/drop move between folders
add;delete,.. should work, fixed

all except focus in dialog fixed

Sorry, but still the same problem. 2 times failed to query automatically, manual refresh does the job. May you fixed one bug, but there still has to be another one...

[Prisma]

Little improvement/suggestion:
The list of groups is in alphabetical order. Good. But group SERVERS is no real group. It's either a root element or a special group.
As special group standing for "others" I'd expect it to be always on top or bottom of the tree.
As root Element I'd expect SERVERS as single root element with servers inside and groups inside. Like directory representation.

But that's a detail... just a suggestion.

[Rudi De Vos]

"uvnc" --> SERVERS
"uvnc/myfolder" -> myfolder
"uvnc/myfolder/subfolder" -> myfolder/subfolder

what do you propose instead of servers ?

Can't repeat
2 times failed to query automatically
Adding extra debug info to exe, so you can see what happen

[Prisma]

"uvnc" --> SERVERS
"uvnc/myfolder" -> myfolder
"uvnc/myfolder/subfolder" -> myfolder/subfolder

Yes, I know. Description SERVERS is also OK.
For a 1:1 representation of the directory I'd have expect SERVERS to be parent of groups AND parent of ungrouped servers:

Code: Select all

SERVERS+--GROUP1--+--server1_g1
       |          +--server2_g1
       |
       +--GROUP2--+--server1_g2
       |          +--server2_g2
       |
       +--server1
       +--server2

At the moment SERVERS is beside groups. This would be also ok. But always on top or on bottom. Not alphabetically between groups

[Prisma]

Always on Top:

Code: Select all

+--SERVERS--+--server1
|           +--server2
|
+--GROUP1---+--server1_g1
|           +--server2_g1
|
+--GROUP2---+--server1_g2
            +--server2_g2

Always on bottom:

Code: Select all

+--GROUP1---+--server1_g1
|           +--server2_g1
|
+--GROUP2---+--server1_g2
|           +--server2_g2
|
+--SERVERS--+--server1
            +--server2

[Rudi De Vos]

Code: Select all

SERVERS+--GROUP1--+--server1_g1
       |          +--server2_g1
       |
       +--GROUP2--+--server1_g2
       |          +--server2_g2
       |
       +--server1
       +--server2

Changed servers to root, so i can sort the other, in all other situations you have sorting issue's.
And added som extra debug info to see way first web request answer nothing

[Prisma]

Sorry, haven't noticed your answer. I'll check it out.

[Prisma]

I still see:

Code: Select all

+--A_GROUP1---+--server1_g1
|             +--server2_g1
|
+--SERVERS----+--server1
|             +--server2
|
+--Z_GROUP2---+--server1_g2
              +--server2_g2

Is this intended? Or a wrong version? I'm primarily asking because of the additional debug info. Wrong version means no debug info.

[Prisma]

Has to be a wrong version. launch10 I'm using is from 06.12.2015. Can't see additional debug info:

Code: Select all

Immediately after this I press refresh, and everything is ok.

BTW: This morning I had to restart the newest 2015 repeater. Nearly every server was missing, except of 2. After restart of repeater all (!) servers came back. This definitely proofed repeater has had a problem. I assume it's still the ID/IP stealing protection kicking servers.

[adm.ivn]

Is there any way to see all currently connected to repeater servers in this console?
Or I have to add them manually one by one?
