Hello *,
I have a network with http proxy, nothing but http and https gets out of
the intranet to the internet. And I need to make a communication from
server residing on internet running single proprietary GUI app which
does NOT implement something like "web client" so I need to pass mouse
events to the gui (restricted keyboard input)...
So more descriptive [server]<->[http proxy]<->[client]
If the proxy is not so restrictive (only passing http traffic) this
would not be a problem (e.g. Sockets + serialization with compression)
and Robot class gives me all I need to do this.
What comes to mind is jsp or jsf on server side + an applet on client
side, but I'm not fluent with either jsf nor jsp, so I'd be very happy
if someone would be able to answer following:
Can I use java.awt.Robot().mouseMove(..) and
java.awt.Robot().createScreenCapture(..) on the server side (jsp, jsf)
or in other words, will that code be able to move the mouse on a server
machine and take a screen shot? I was thinking about using jBoss.
As you see, this is very, very dumb remote control, but as it is
oriented to a single app, it should work if I can do that somehow...
Thanks in advance!
