About the PCoIP Client SDK for Linux¶

The Client SDK for Linux does not ship with its own session client binary; it uses the standard PCoIP Software Client for Linux binary instead. Download and install the PCoIP client application, and then invoke it from the SDK.

Important: If you have used previous versions of the Client SDK for Linux

Prior to the 23.01 release, the Client SDK for Linux shipped with an included session client binary. If you are coming from a previous release, you should install the PCoIP Software Client for Linux, and update your code to use the new file location.

Once installed, the binary can be found here:

/usr/bin/pcoip-client

For an example of programmatically invoking the in-session PCoIP client, search for launchSessionClient in the following file:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/pcoip-client/examples/broker_client_example/main.cpp

After the PCoIP connection is established, several options are available from the in-session client. For details, see the URI configuration options described in the PCoIP Software Client for Linux Administrators' Guide.

Listing the SDK Package Files¶

Fetch the latest .deb package for the SDK by running the following command:

apt-get download pcoip-client-sdk

2. To list the contents of the SDK package, run the following command, where `pcoip-client-sdk_23.06.1-18.04_amd64.deb' is the name of the SDK package:

dpkg -c pcoip-client-sdk_23.06.1-18.04_amd64.deb
