vnc_android_library

VNC Client for Android

This library is based entirely on bVNC by iiordanov.

Using

Its a faily easy process to get to work using this library in eclipse (because that's the format it is provided in). To get started simply follow the instructons below. Any variable in $UPPERCASE and starting with a dollar sign ($) should be replaced with sensible paths.

Note: These instructions assume you are working in a linux environment, and already have all the nessesary android-sdk and eclipse plugins downloaded.
Make sure you have installed/updated the sqlitegen plugin v0.1.19 into Eclipse from:
https://github.com/iiordanov/sqlitegen-secure/releases/download/v0.1.19/sqlitegen_eclipse_site_0.1.19.jar

Note: Using an older version of the plugin may not work because of the switch to the sqlcipher release of sqlite.
