Usage
Sample code usage is available in the GoDoc.
- Connect and listen to server messages: https://godoc.org/github.com/kward/go-vnc#example-Connect
The source code is laid out such that the files match the document sections:
- [7.1] handshake.go
- [7.2] security.go
- [7.3] initialization.go
- [7.4] pixel_format.go
- [7.5] client.go
- [7.6] server.go
- [7.7] encodings.go
There are two additional files that provide everything else:
- vncclient.go -- code for instantiating a VNC client
- common.go -- common stuff not related to the RFB protocol
