FreeRDP Versions Save

Notworthy changes:

Final 3.0.0 release just a little over two weeks after the last 3.0.0-rc0. This contains bugfixes, drops some legacy code, implements a small feature request and adds some improvements to the build system.

Most notably is the new PreventInSourceBuilds.cmake which does exactly what the name implies, it aborts builds where source equals build directory. If you can not use out of source tree builds for some reason, you can circumvent this measure with the CMake setting -DALLOW_IN_SOURCE_BUILD=ON

Noteworthy changes:

• add support for AF_VSOCK #9561
• xfreerdp drop X11 GDI implementation #9492
• fixed connection freeze with childSession #9594
• fixed relative mouse input issues #9608
• fixed issues with drive redirection #9610
• simplified mac build #9601
• fixed TSMF to build again #9603
• fixed command line /gfx parsing bug #9598
• prevent in source tree build #9550
• fixed various issues with settings #9595, #9596
• add E2K cpu support in WinPR #9599
• fixed wfreerdp DPI settings when used as embedded window #9593
• android add mouse hover support #9495

freerdp-3.0.0-beta1.zip freerdp-3.0.0-beta1.tar.gz We are pleased to announce the first beta release for the next stable 3.0 series of FreeRDP. It has been a huge endeavour to implement all the new shiny bells and whistles as well as clean up the code base and we´re still ironing out some smaller glitches. This is the first API breaking change since the 2.0 series and there are some adjustments to be made for existing applications. See https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/wiki/FreeRDP3-migration-notes for help (still incomplete)

Noteworthy changes:

• Support for AAD/AVD authentication
• Support for websocket transport
• Support smartcard authentication (TLS and NLA)
• Full smartcard emulation support (login with certificate + key)
• Rewritten proxy, new module API
• New reference client based on SDL2 (work in progress)
• Rewritten logging, now parsing issues are all writing to the log so that issues with protocol incompatibilities can be easier analyzed by just turning on logging
• Full OpenSSL 3 support
• Internal implementations for RC4, MD4 and MD5 (required for non critical parts in RDP but not part of more recend SSL libraries)
• Updated RDP protocol support
• Improved xfreerdp remote app support
• Reworked internal state machine for both client and server implementations
• Server implementations can now make use of connect-time network autodetection
• Improved clipboard handling, now also support server-to-client file transfer (currently xfreerdp only)
• EnhancedRemoteApp support: Utilizing the more modern standard allows remote apps with less glitches and window shadows
• Added client- and server-side handling for RDSTLS
• Support for the graphics redirection channel
