I'm trying to remote an SWT GUI (Eclipse RCP) from a Linux or Windows box onto a Windows Mobile handheld device. So far I've tried:
- RDP: Windows Terminal Services.
xrdpserver on the Linux box. This works, but we have issues with the clipboard and pasting punctuation (i.e. on the PDA, which has a barcode scanner that copies the barcode data to the clipboard and simulates a Paste, a barcode reading A-2-C gets pasted into the TS as A2C, but correctly as A-2-C everywhere else), as well as session control - what happens if users A and B get disconnected, and they reconnect in an order such that B gets A's derelict session and vice versa? - VNC: There doesn't seem to be a free, lightweight VNC client available that works on Windows Mobile. Same session control issues apply, but may have a much simpler solution (PuTTY w/ port forwarding to a custom initiated VNC server session?).
- X-server on WM: Seems like the perfect solution, but I haven't been able to find an X-server that runs on Windows Mobile.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to remote an SWT application's UI to a Windows Mobile device, or have any ideas on how to get the aforementioned ideas working?
