About the PCoIP Client SDK for Windows

The Client SDK for Windows does not ship with its own session client binary; it uses the standard PCoIP Software Client for Windows 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 Windows

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

Once installed, the binary can be found here:

%PROGRAMFILES(X86)%\Teradici\PCoIP Client\bin\pcoip_client.exe

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

<working directory>\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 Windows Administrators' Guide.

For an example of how to use the Teradici broker libraries and the PCoIP Session libraries to connect to an agent and launch a PCoIP session, see Minimal Client Example.
