: Cham Mama <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : May be my question yesterday was confusing to many. : Here I am putting in a different way. : 1. I connect to a VNC Server from my office Desktop : 2. Then I start some application and start editing a : mail... Then I leave in the middle of the mail : editing. : (I am assuming that whatever application I am running : is being stored in the VNC server)
Your assumption is a bad one. The VNC server takes no action. You are simply not looking at it anymore. : 3. Now I connect from Home Desktop to the same VNC : Server. : 4. As per VNC's document, I should be able to see the : mail editing application being started so that I can : complete the editing. : So my question is, where is the VNC code which remembers the viewers' : state, so that when I connect from Home, gives the same desktop (i.e : restore the same desktop to that of the Office Viewer, with all the : opened applications at that time) to the new viewer ? How many times, in how many ways, can the simple message THAT THERE IS NO SUCH CODE be given? Do you insist that some physical process must "save" the state of the moon, and restore it later when you open your eyes again? Would you keep asking what physical processes are "remembering" the moon so it can be "restored" later? The moon is there, and stays there, whether your eyes are open or not. And the desktop is there, whether there is a VNC viewer attached to it or not. Therefore, VNC doesn't need to save anything at all. The closest there is to it is the code that opens the TCP connection given the IP address and screen number of the VNC server. It doesn't REMEMBER anything at all; it simply connects you to the SAME desktop. Or put it this way (as Adrian Umpleby just did). The viewer stores no state at all, so there is no code that saves state, since there's no state to save.
