My question is: is there a way to set up a virtual display as default display on a linux server (so that all GUI application launched will be displayed on that display, if no counter indication is made)?
I tried using this: xvfb-run java -jar autoclick.jar
, which produces the following output :
searching graphic devices
is Headless:false
screen N°1 width:1600 height:900
just 1 robot click:
Magic button clicked !
and here's the autoclick code :
System.out.println("searching graphic devices");
System.out.println("is Headless:"+GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless());
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
int count = 1;
for(GraphicsDevice screen : ge.getScreenDevices())
{
System.out.println("screen N°"+count+" width:"+screen.getDisplayMode().getWidth()
+" height:"+screen.getDisplayMode().getHeight());
}
{... create a JFrame and add a JButton that closes the application and prints a message to the console when clicked}
System.out.println("just 1 robot click:");
try
{
robot = new Robot();
justOneClick(frame.getX()+100, frame.getY()+100);
}
catch(AWTException e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
To make it short, here are my 2 problems:
I still have to call xvfb-run every time i want to launch an application on the virtual display. Which means that applications that are not launched by me are not launched on the virtual display.
I can't launch another application on the display created by xvfb-run.
Sorry for my bad English syntax, and thank you for your time.
