Important Notes and Requirements

  • Use of Anyware Client SDK requires a separate agreement with HP Anwyare.

  • The SDK is intended for use cases where client customizations are required and when Anyware Software Clients, PCoIP Zero Clients, and PCoIP Mobile Clients are not sufficient. 

  • The SDK is intended for customers with software development skills and knowledge, as well as a sound understanding of virtualization systems.

Release 21.07.4 of the Client SDK for macOS is a maintenance release which replaces and deprecates 21.07.3.

It includes the following fix:

  • Fixed an issue where, on exit, Session Client (PCoIP Client SDK) sends a enter keystroke intended for the command prompt, however this keystroke will be caught by whatever application is currently in focus. Now the Session Client sends the keystroke directly to the command prompt, so no other application will capture this keystroke.

Known Issues

macOS client only detects audio output device at session start

132429

The macOS client will not detect a change in the audio output device while in session.

Workaround:

Disconnect and reconnect to the session when changing the audio output device.

Caps Lock key can go out of sync

74388

The state of the Caps Lock key on the host and client can become out of sync when the user presses and releases the Caps Lock key quickly.

macOS client may only minimize one display on OS X 10.11

61740

If you launch the PCoIP Software Client in OS X 10.11 and you have not clicked anywhere within the display before using the minimize hot key (Ctrl+Alt+M), the display that has not been used will not be minimized. This does not occur in macOS 10.12 (Sierra) or 10.13 (High Sierra).

Workaround:

Click with the mouse on both displays of the client any time before pressing Ctrl+Alt+M, and both displays will be minimized.

Using an invalid or corrupt branding package crashes client

61678

If the branding package does not match the hash value specified for the branding package, the session client will terminate.

Workaround:

Replace the corrupt branding file or use the correct hash value.

The Datalogic Quickscan QS6500 barcode scanner does not work when the device is bridged.

Workaround:

Do not bridge the device. The device works as expected with the remote host when it is not bridged.

USB keyboards do not work in bridged mode

40580

Keyboards do not work when bridged. This affects both Windows and macOS PCoIP Software Client.

Workaround:

Do not bridge the keyboard. Keyboards function correctly when locally terminated.
