File: ui.js
Tests Added: False
Changes:
- Fix JSHint errors
- add some curly braces to improve clarity
- move variable declarations to relevant locations instead of at the top
of methods
button group instead of centered.
* On low resolution devices the padding towards the edges of the screen of
the left and right button groups are now removed.
* Since the status_bar was merged into the control-bar the actual status_bar
element became redundant and was therefor removed.
* Improved the style of the control-bar when there is an error or a warning.
* Implemented a fix so that vnc_auto.html works as intended with the improved
screen real estate patch.
* Implemented correct use of the FBU.bytes variable.
* Removed the non-incremental update from ext_desktop_size to prevent the
server from sending extra ExtendedDesktopSize rectangles.
* The code is now using the 'onFBUComplete' callback from rfb to resize
the session on reconnect instead of a timer.
Correctly identifies the use of http/https and forces the value of port to 80 and 443
respectively, as in this situation window.location.port is blank.
This is patch includes the same changes as made in vnc_auto.html

In IE9, the window.onload event can fire before dynamically loaded
scripts have finished loading. This can result in either WebSocket (in
the case of vnc_auto.html) or RFB (in the case of vnc.html) not being
defined at the point when window.onload is called.
- Move the load_scripts routine from vnc.js to util.js (so that
websockify can use it too). Also, refactor to work when load_scripts
is called by a script that itself uses load_scripts. When the whole
chain of dynamically loaded scripts is finished then call
window.onscriptsload. Use this mechanism in all the places that
depend on dynamic loading of scripts: vnc.html, vnc_auto.html,
websock.js, tests/vnc_playback.html, and tests/vnc_perf.html.
- Use the new window.onscriptsload handler instead of window.onload.
- Remove include/start.js and do the script loading and startup event
handling in include/ui.js instead.
The MPL 2.0 license is a "file-level" copyleft license vs the
"project-level" nature of the L/GPL. The intention of noVNC has
always been that it should be easy to incorporate into existing
projects and sites whether free/open or proprietary/commercial. The MPL
2.0 is designed for this sort of combination project but still
requires that any distributed modifications to noVNC source files must
also be published under the same license.
In addition, the MPL 2.0 allows the code to be used in L/GPL projects
(the secondary license clause). This means that any projects that are
already incorporating noVNC should not be impacted by this change and
in fact it should clarify the licensing situation (the exact
application of the L/GPL to web applications and interpreted code is
somewhat ambiguous).
The HTML, CSS, image and font files continue to be under more
permissive licenses (see LICENSE.txt). The included websockify python
code remains under a LGPLv3 license although the include/websock.js
file from the websockify component is now under MPL 2.0 as well.
Permission was received from other noVNC authors to make this change to their
code license on the following dates:
- Chris Gordon (UI): Jun 24, 2012
- Antoine Mercadal (DOM,*util.js): Oct 10, 2012
- William Lightning (UltraVNC repeater): Oct 10, 2012
- Mike Tinglof (tight encoding): Oct 15, 2012
Move all the inline Javascript event handlers from vnc.html to
include/ui.js except the load handler which is moved to
include/start.js). This is on the path towards a Chrome
extension/packaged app since inline Javascript is prohibited in that
situation.
Switch from using cookies to store setting to using localStorage (or
chrome.storage.sync if available in extension/app mode) for the
settings. Also refactor to make the initializing of the setting and
and loading of the UI to be more asynchronous.
Clarify in LICENSE.txt that the noVNC core library is the part that is
LGPLv3 licensed. The HTML, CSS, images and fonts are separate from the
core library and can be modified and distributed with the noVNC core
but under their own license conditions.
HTML and CSS: 2-Clause BSD
Fonts: SIL OFL 1.1
Images: CC BY SA 3.0
In other words, you can modify the layout and appearance of of noVNC
to integrate with an existing or new web site or application without
having to publish the source for those modifications under the LGPLv3.
However, use of and modification of the noVNC core library (i.e. the
core Javascript that makes up noVNC) must still be according to the
LGPLv3.
Chris Gordon was the other contributor to the HTML, CSS, and images
included with noVNC and gave permission for this license clarification
on June 23, 2012.
I.e. if the page is https:// then the WebSocket encrypt setting will
default to wss:// (TLS encryption).
Note that since noVNC settings are saved in cookies, this will only
affect first load. If you have already loaded the page, then the
encrypt setting will be whatever you last set it to.
