Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

So i've downloaded the SourceCode, the SDK and hit Build.

As expected it didn't compile in the first try. There are 16 Errors all related to 'globalFakeKey' not being declared in this scope, the scope being the qglobalfakekey.cpp file. Any suggestions? I'll play around for a while but the last time i program was looooong time ago and well i will have to study the code to try to understand what's going on. Could it be that the definitions ".h" are not being read on time?

Well if you have any suggestions please let me know.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

No clue why, but running on startup it's all good. Thanks for your support.

I love this app!

Edit: Not every time. Will see if I can troubleshoot more.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

The meaning of the error is, that there is no function named globalFakeKey. I have defined this function only for Linux and Windows. When I have time (I hope tomorrow), I'll remove the keyboard functionality from Mac version explicitly to make the source code buildable. When I have more time, I'll try to add the fake key function for Mac.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

been wanting something like this since getting the N9. can it control windows media player?

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

@jmsarriat
I added an empty class for OSX, I hope that it compiles now.

@F2thaK
Yes it can. It "fakes" real keyboard input, so it works like a physical keyboard with multimedia keys, it is also possible to define any key combination you like.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

It would be nice to have ability to add profiles and maybe an option to pair loading a profile with custom command (useful when launching a media player, that has different key bindings than another one you use).

Hi again,

well it's getting better but now after trying to build i get 17 warnings many if not all of them related to unused values and one error with the following output:

"Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

I was looking at your headers and in both cases you include either windows.h or some other headers which i imagine are platform dependent. There is none for the mac header, any clue what the name of it may be?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

Got it, I actually added the header as source in the pro file *facepalm*. The warnings are quite normal, as the functions are doing nothing and the variables are unused. No need to define any system dependant header yet. Repository is updated.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

Hi there,

Built successfully in first attempt! I managed to build and run the server on the mac! The phone sees the pc and connects without a problem, the only hiccup is that the only functionality so far is the cursor movement. No click or keystroke was perceived by the laptop, what could be the problem? By the way i noticed that in the pic you posted earlier the app has a black theme, somehow different from the one i have, am i missing something? In any case the functionality, not the form, is what i am most interested in.


As always i am most grateful for you help.

Re: [Announce] QRemoteControl
 

Great, the only thing missing now is the mac port of the key faking part. I hope I can do this next week.
