Android Client

This client is a work in progress, it shares the core code with the Java clients.

Future Work

• focus bugs
• keyboard support: show popup keyboard via menu key and/or button in window bar (see ​How to Capture soft keyboard input in a View?, and handle keyboard modifiers when simulating mouse events
• use a separate thread for networking
• android key events: #29
• xpra android window container and sizes: #30
• handle zooming with pinch
• handle focus window with double tap
• drag could use the same pixmap as XpraWindow (and ignore/deal with resize?)
• context menu: about, preferences, etc
• don't disconnect when screen times out? (option? or re-connect on resume)
• ssh support
• launcher gui: detect invalid host/port and show a more friendly error message
• handle "disconnect" requests and IO errors better
• add window icon
• video encoding support (may require a video container format), pointers:
  • ​Media Playback You can play audio or video from media files stored in your application's resources (raw resources), from standalone files in the filesystem, or from a data stream arriving over a network connection, all using MediaPlayer? APIs.
  • ​Video Playback App on Android Whitepaper (sample code included)
