Technique: Integrating Applications On A Remote Desktop
|
From the User’s Perspective
|
Behind the Scenes
|
|
User
loads his accounting application and navigates to the Invoice Summary window
and the magic button displays on the titlebar.
|
Ratchet-X,
running on the remote machine detects a known RegWin and displays the magic
button.
|
|
User
clicks the magic button.
|
Ratchet-X
running on the remote machine starts to run an action on the remote desktop
which calls WaitForScreenDataTransfer and passes in an invoice number. This
displays a window (virtualized and available on the local desktop but not
visually seen because its loaded off-screen. Then, Ratchet-X running on the
local machine detects the ScreenDataTransfer RegWin and auto-runs another
action on the local desktop. That action reads the invoice number from the
ScreenDataTransfer RegWin and loads a local document management executable to
display the appropriate document on the user's local desktop.
|
|
User
sees invoice document appear.

Ratchet-X and conflicts with keyboard shortcut applications
Ratchet-X is highly unintrusive in terms of its impact at the desktop. However, there are instances when it may conflict with other applications (usually utilities), that work with the keyboard buffer. An example of such an application is PhraseExpress from Bartels Media GmbH. This very useful utility allows the user to create global keyboard shortcuts that when typed, are replaced with a larger phrase thus reducing typing and ensuring textual consistency. In order to do this, the application must monitor what the user is typing into every application at the desktop, perform a recognition, eat the shortcut keystrokes when entered and replace it with the mapped long form text from its database. While this would not normally cause a conflict with Ratchet-X, if your action makes heavy use of stuffing keys in the keyboard buffer or your regwin hosts a conflicting keyboard shortcut, a conflict may arise. If an action does not seem to be doing what it is supposed to do or is exhibiting odd behavior and your action or regwin uses the keyboard buffer or shortcuts, check to see if the user is running a utility that intercepts keystrokes. This might save you some action debugging time.
