Hi,
you need to follow similar logic as within ManagedClient, which Nick
already sent. In the onrequire instruction you receive list of required
arguments (e.g the whole instruction can look like
"8.required,8.username,6.domain,8.password;", which means you need to send
username, domain and password).
You then need to send each of the required instructions (I believe the
value can be empty, at least for domain that seems to work) and that is
achieved using ArgumentValueStream as used in the
"ManagedClient.sendArguments" method.
So if you receive only password in the required instruction, you just need
to do:
var stream = guacamoleclient.createArgumentValueStream("text/plain",
> "password");
> var writer = new Guacamole.StringWriter(stream);
> writer.sendText("the actual password for the connection");
> writer.sendEnd();
But if you receive username, domain and password in the
required instruction, you need to do the same for every argument separately
- the second argument in createArgumentValueStream is the actual argument
name as received in the required instruction.
And only once you send all the required arguments, the connection will
continue (so you just can't skip those you don't want to handle).
