The serialized text is not nul-terminated (its size is explicitely
provided), but the input text in the event is a nul-terminated string.
The test was failing with ASAN enabled.
The text input control_event was initially designed for mapping
SDL_TextInputEvent, limited to 32 characters.
For simplicity, the copy/paste feature was implemented using the same
control_event: it just sends the text to paste.
However, the pasted text might have a length breaking some assumptions:
- on the client, the event max-size was smaller than the text
max-length,
- on the server, the raw buffer storing the events was smaller than the
max event size.
Fix these inconsistencies, and encode the length on 2 bytes, to accept
more than 256 characters.
Fixes <https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/issues/10>.
The video screen size on the client may differ from the real device
screen size (e.g. the video stream may be scaled down). As a
consequence, mouse events must be scaled to match the real device
coordinates.
For this purpose, make the client send the video screen size along with
the absolute pointer location, and the server scale the location to
match the real device size before injecting mouse events.
To control the device from the computer:
- retrieve mouse and keyboard SDL events;
- convert them to Android events;
- serialize them;
- send them on the same socket used by the video stream (but in the
opposite direction);
- deserialize the events on the Android side;
- inject them using the InputManager.
