The IPC is done through sockets using the TCP protocol. Message packets have a specified format and authentication method that is described in L{EdIpcServer}. @section protocol Remote Control Protocol: This server and its relationship with the main application object allows for some limited remote control of Editra. The server's basic message protocol requirements are as follows. @verbatim SESSION_KEY;xml;MSGEND @endverbatim Where the SESSION_KEY is the unique authentication key created by the app that started the server. This key is stored in the user profile and only valid for the current running session of Editra. The MSGEND indicator is the L{MSGEND} string defined in this file (*EDEND*). If both of these parts of the message are found and correct the server will forward the messages that are packed in between to the app. @section format Message Format: @verbatim @endverbatim """ __author__ = "Cody Precord " __svnid__ = "$Id: ed_ipc.py 72623 2012-10-06 19:33:06Z CJP $" __revision__ = "$Revision: 72623 $" #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------# # Imports import sys import wx import threading import socket import time #import select # Editra Libs import util import ed_xml import ebmlib #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------# # Globals # Port choosing algorithm ;) EDPORT = (10 * int('ed', 16) + sum(ord(x) for x in "itr") + int('a', 16)) * 10 MSGEND = "*EDEND*" # Xml Implementation EDXML_IPC = "edipc" EDXML_FILELIST = "filelist" EDXML_FILE = "file" EDXML_ARGLIST = "arglist" EDXML_ARG = "arg" #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------# edEVT_COMMAND_RECV = wx.NewEventType() EVT_COMMAND_RECV = wx.PyEventBinder(edEVT_COMMAND_RECV, 1) class IpcServerEvent(wx.PyCommandEvent): """Event to signal the server has recieved some commands""" def __init__(self, etype, eid, values=None): """Creates the event object""" wx.PyCommandEvent.__init__(self, etype, eid) self._value = values def GetCommands(self): """Returns the list of commands sent to the server @return: the value of this event """ return self._value #-----------------------------------------------------------------------------# class EdIpcServer(threading.Thread): """Create an instance of IPC server for Editra.
