Package: x2goclient Severity: important Version: 4.0.3.0-preview
Hi Alex,
the new folder browser implementation in X2Go Client writes QtByteArray objects to .x2goclient/sessions.
""" [General] TEST_FOLDER=ByteArray()
[<sessionid1>] ... """
This information cannot be handled by PyHoca-GUI / Python X2Go. I understand that this is needed to store empty folder icons in the sessions file.
To reproduce...
- create a session profile in the base folder
- create a new folder and place the above session into that folder
- after I have created that folder, the above TEST_FOLDER entry under General appears
- if I then add an icon to that folder, the ByteArray gets filled with content.
All this information can only be handled via Qt applications. Is it possible to write the information in a different format? E.g. base64 encoded string (raw image data) + the file format (-> "<base64data>.png")?
Yes, it is possible. I'll check if I have a time to do this till weekend.
THANKS!!!
A change of this approach before 4.0.3.0 release will be highly appreciated...
Also we should not use [General] here as the ini file section. How about: [Folders] or [SessionFolders]?
No, it is the only way to keep compatibility with older versions of X2Go client. All groups in ini file identified from client as sessions. If we save the icons in group "Folder", older versions of x2go client will identify this group as session with id "Folder". Save this icons in other ini file is not an option neither (x2gobroker)
Ah, ok. Good point. Agreeing here. I wonder if we should prefix the
folder name by something:
TEST_FOLDER=<data>.<format>
-> SessionsFolder::TEST_FOLDER=<data>.<format>
Or something like that...
Also: So, if there is an ini section named [General], it should get
ignored by Python X2Go, right?
Greets, Mike
