Struct InputSimulator 

pub struct InputSimulator { /* private fields */ }

Platform-independent input simulator.

Construct with InputSimulator::new; on unsupported platforms it returns crate::error::RdesktopError::UnsupportedPlatform. The simulator holds no threads and is cheap to keep around — create one and reuse it.

Implementations

impl InputSimulator

pub fn new() -> Result<Self>

Create a platform simulator. Errors on unsupported platforms.

pub fn press_key(&self, key: Key) -> Result<()>

Hold a key down (no auto release).

pub fn release_key(&self, key: Key) -> Result<()>

Release a held key.

pub fn tap_key(&self, key: Key) -> Result<()>

Press then immediately release a key.

pub fn tap_combo(&self, keys: &[Key]) -> Result<()>

Press every key in keys, then release them in reverse order. Use this for chords such as Ctrl+C: pass [Key::Letter('c')] after holding Ctrl via InputSimulator::press_key, or build the whole chord from raw keys and let this method do press/release ordering.

pub fn type_text(&self, text: &str) -> Result<()>

Type arbitrary text as if entered on the keyboard. Uses Unicode input events, so it works for any character (including non-ASCII).

pub fn move_mouse(&self, x: i32, y: i32, absolute: bool) -> Result<()>

Move the mouse. When absolute is true, (x, y) are screen coordinates; otherwise they are relative mickeys (pixels).

pub fn press_mouse(&self, button: MouseButton) -> Result<()>

Hold a mouse button down.

pub fn release_mouse(&self, button: MouseButton) -> Result<()>

Release a held mouse button.

pub fn click(&self, button: MouseButton) -> Result<()>

Click (press + release) a mouse button at the current position.

pub fn scroll(&self, delta: i32) -> Result<()>

Scroll the wheel by delta units (positive = away from the user).
