Re: [PATCH virt-viewer 0/7] RFC: read session parameters from file

Hi,

Set looks good to me overall. Only thing I'm wondering is why have
VirtViewerFile in virt-viewer and not make it a SpiceFile and put it
in spice-client-glib ?

The main advantage I can think of for having it in virt-viewer
would be making vnc connections in a similar way, but you don't
add that in the current patch set, do you plan to add this later?

Regards,

Hans

Hi,

RHEVM portal sets up remote-viewer using the Spice Controller [1] (a
browser applet will spawn the client, and connect to it to communicate
connection details and other messages)

In order to avoid the need for an extra communication channels and
browser applets, we could use a simple text file containing all the
necessary informations, allowing easier portability and testing.

This file is not specific to Spice. It could be used as well to start
VNC connections, and configure the client.

We keep the RHEVM/Spice format for description of hotkeys, to avoid
breaking exisiting configuration. Eventually, new fields could be
added later with Gtk accel format instead.
