VNC Free Edition Source Distribution for Windows platforms
VNC Free Edition is Copyright RealVNC Ltd. 2002-2008. This software is distributed under the GNU General Public Licence as published by the Free Software Foundation. See the accompanying licence.txt file for the conditions under which the software is made available.
VNC Free Edition also contains code from other sources. See the Acknowledgements section below, and the individual files for details of the conditions under which they are made available.
The source tree contains a number of directories, and is most easily built by loading the VNC workspace file (vnc.dsw) into Microsoft Visual Studio 6/7. This will preserve the required dependencies between the sub-projects.
There are three main executable projects:
vncviewer - The VNC Viewer for Win32.
winvnc - The VNC Server for Win32 (command-line operation
only).
vncconfig - The configuration applet and GUI front-end for VNC
Server.
These projects are designed to be built using Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0, and should also compile with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET (version 7). Other compilers have not been tested but the code base is extremely portable.
