The droid-VNC-server projects consists in three main modules parts: the daemon, wrapper libs and the GUI.

Daemon

Provides the vnc server functionality, injects input/touch events, clipboard management, etc Available in jni/ folder

Wrapper libs

Compiled against the AOSP so everyone can build the daemon/GUI without having to fetch +2GB files. Currently there are 2 wrappers, gralloc and flinger.

Available in nativeMethods/ folder, and precompiled libs in nativeMethods/lib/

GUI

GUI handles user-friendly control of the daemon. Connects to the daemon using local IPC. Should use vnc-build.sh and vnc-daemon.sh instead though.

Compiling

Use the vnc-build.sh script to build the daemon and wrapper libs and to deploy to a connected device.

Options:

- `-w`: Compile the wrapper libs
- `-s`: Skip deploy to device
- `-a SDK`: Specify which SDK number to use

Pushes the androidvncserver and wrapper lib to /data/local sets the proper permissions.

Starting the daemon

Use the vnc-daemon.sh script to control the daemon.

Options:

- `-s VAL`: Set the scale. Defaults to 100.
- `-m VAL': Choose the screen capture method, gralloc or flinger (default).

Arguments:

- `start`
- `stop`
- `restart`

Building the GUI App

It shouldn't be necessary to use the GUI app to control the daemon, but if you must, here are the steps:

Compile C daemon

In project folder:

1. $ ndk-build
2. $ ./updateExecsAndLibs.sh

Compile Wrapper libs

Setup:

1. `$ cd <aosp_folder>`
1. `$ . build/envsetup.sh`
1. `$ lunch`
1. `$ ln -s <droid-vnc-folder>/nativeMethods/ external/`

To build:

1. `$ cd external/nativeMethods`
1. `$ mm .`
1. `$ cd <droid-vnc-folder>`
1. `$ ./updateExecsAndLibs.sh`

Compile GUI

Use ant to build and deploy.

$ ant debug install
