Wayland/weston, Qt and RDP connection...

[Matti Ristimäki]

Hi,

Any tips, where/how to debug RDP related problem with Wayland/Weston. Not kind of sure if this is Weston problem or Qt problem...

Goal:
Trying to create a RDP connection to a Qt GUI-application.


[Service]
# Requires systemd-notify.so Weston plugin.
Type=notify
EnvironmentFile=/etc/default/weston
ExecStart=/usr/bin/weston --log=${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/weston.log --modules=systemd-notify.so --modules=screen.share.so


Problem:
Seems, that the Qt application doesn't start after adding the "--modules=screen.share.so" to services. And it doesn't start:

Basic overview:

Running "first" weston with...
drm-backend
screen-share
Qt-application (CPX Control Panel is the Qt application)

...and when the screen.share.so starts the "second" Weston, a RDP command is executed from weston.ini*
rdp-backend
fullscreen-shell


*=weston.ini will run the rdp-backend.so

[screen-share]
command=@bindir@/weston --backend=rdp-backend.so --rdp-tls-cert=/data/etc/ssh/tls.crt --rdp-tls-key=/data/etc/ssh/tls.key --shell=fullscreen-shell.so --no-clients-resize --no-config
start-on-startup=true
