Support for Intent x11: scheme (openintents) #35

Closed nitomartinez closed 9 years ago

nitomartinez commented 10 years ago

It would be nice if the X11 SDL server supports the

OpenIntents x11:// call

http://www.openintents.org/node/905

Currenty the following xserver already support it:

It would be nice if other applications could benefit from the same intent.

I'll implement that when I'll have free time, maybe in two weeks or so.

Fixed in 1.11.20. I would like to know which apps can send such intent, because I don't know any.

nitomartinez commented 9 years ago

Many thanks for that.

At least it is used by the Android QVD Client.

See http://theqvd.com and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theqvd.android.client

By default it uses the embedded X11 X server https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.theqvd.android.client

You just need to specify in the connection settings "Use local X" as "generic" instead of "local", and then it will use any application that supports openintents as in

http://www.openintents.org/~oi/node/905

Currently that I know of the QVD client supports

Many thanks for your help supporting openintents, so that other applications can also support X11 intents.

I will update the documentation

http://docs.theqvd.com/android.html#_x_server

To include also your X server, which is working really well :-)

To correctly get this working it would be nice to have

<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW>
