Setting Up an Anyware Agent Test Environment

Before developing your custom client, you should set up a working Anyware system. HP recommends establishing a small proof-of-concept system for custom client testing, consisting of a host machine with an installed Anyware agent.

Linking the SDK for macOS

This section includes instructions for linking the SDK libraries with your custom client application:

1. Open a Terminal window and change directory to the root of the mounted SDK disk image.

2. Copy the SDK files to desired location for SDK development, refered to as <sdk_location> below.

System Requirements

The following table outlines the system requirements for the Anyware Client SDK for macOS:

Using the Branding Package

Once you have created the branding package, it can be used by the session client. The pre-session client is responsible for verifying the package and passing it to the session client executable.

To use the branding package:

HID Local Termination Blacklist

Local Termination of Wacom tablets provides the best user experience in networks with high latency. However, some features of the tablet may not be fully supported with local termination. A HID Local Termination Blacklist has been added to override the preferred local termination mode.

The following section outlines the scope precedence commands between the System Scope and User Scope. If you are updating individual user settings then the user scope locations and parameters can be followed. Due to this order of precedence where by the system scope setting takes precedence over the user scope setting, a change in the user settings may not take effect if the system scope setting has been updated.

PCoIP Session Phases

There are two phases in a PCoIP session:

Using The Collaboration Broker Client Example

The sample Collaboration Broker Client demonstrates how the APIs can be used to customize and control the pre-session and session phases of the Collaboration connection. Invoking the Collaboration Broker Client API is a two-step procedure, where as a first step, the Collaboration Broker Client Example is built.

Creating a Branding Text Layout File

The layout file format used to customize the session client is an UTF-8 XML text file. The layout schema is a top-level <pcoip-client-branding/> element with a version attribute describing the schema version, and containing the required elements described next:
