Hitachi-ZYWRLE Encoding Number (was RE: Introduction of New VNC codec)

[Steve Bostedor]

Why not patch against both?  The UltraVNC and TightVNC flavors are just as
popular as RealVNC.  Why limit yourself to just one version of VNC?

Hi Noriaki-san,

I've had encoding number 17 allocated to Hitachi ZYWRLE - using this
encoding number will ensure compatibility with standard VNC and
VNC-compatible releases.  The next release of the VNC codebase will
therefore include an encoding "place-holder":

  const int encoding3rdPartyHitachiZYWRLE = 17;

Not necessarily - which particular VNC version, or VNC-based software, you'd
like to patch your encoding against is entirely up to you.  I'd would
recommend either patching against the standard VNC release, or a
VNC-compatible project such as TightVNC.
