: I don't know what you mean. MAXREQUESTSZ is 64KB, and calls like
: GrSendClientData() and GrArea() split larger blocks into multiple
: packets... Plus doesn't ViewML currently use the "load via a temporary
: file" hack anyway?
Alex,
MAXREQUESTSZ in nanox/nxproto.h is 10000. You are correct in that
GrArea and GrSendClientData split data into smaller chunks. The
GrDrawImageBits and GrDrawBitmap do not, however. Jordan
is incorrect about ViewML, however. ViewML uses the server-side
image routines that have the server load the image, so no image data
is transferred over the network. This will want to change, however,
since loading an invalid image will crash the server, to the detriment
of other applications. Other than that, there is no 10k limitation on
ViewML images.
Regards,
Greg
