Synergy server on Android ? #6

Open bbhangoo opened 7 years ago

bbhangoo commented 7 years ago

I have a need to run the synergy server on an Android box (custom video distribution device), not a phone. Has anyone tried porting the server to Android ? Would love to hear the experiences of doing something similar. Alternatively if someone has created a JAVA interface to the synergy screen classes etc - moving the code from the synergys app to a library and making the calls via a JAVA interface that can be packaged into an apk and/or moved it to Android Studio ?

Thanks in advance for any pointers.

This project is pretty dead sadly...but I have gotten this up and running on my Android device as well as an emulator.

That is cool that you got it working on your Android device, you do mean the server, right? Not just the client. Can you please share how you did it? Did you build it on Android Studio ?

@rootkow Hi Matt, any update on my query ? Would appreciate any help.

My apologies, I misread. No I didn't get the server running on Android. I did get the client working on both. An yes, I was using Android Studio for the emulator. It's been over a year since I last played around with this so I don't remember all of the details, but I remember most of my issues revolved around the goldfish kernel when working with the emulator.
