This application was working before but now it just throws that error every time I try to launch. Java Version 8 Update 351 (from About Java GUI), latest version of Remote Numpad Server.

Java console:
java version "19.0.1" 2022-10-18
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 19.0.1+10-21)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 19.0.1+10-21, mixed mode, sharing)

I had previously installed Java 19.0.1 attempting to build an Android apk from another project, but was using Remote Numpad just fine after I had done that

Hi, I had to punch a hole in windows firewall manually. While for me it's an easy task, I guess a lot of people don't know how to do that.

Also A full link to the server installer of the server on play store and your github readme would help the not so tech savvy. (I installed from f-droid, but came across a "does not work" on play"

Cheers! Great app, exactly what it needs to do without fuss!

the equals button is toggling the number lock on the windows version.

When connextion doesn t work in french is says "echec de la connexion" .
It would be nice to know what is the error.
I am in HID mode, I don t know why it don t work now (it used to work).
The error seems to come back much faster when the blutooth connexion with thcomputer actually works.
I think My error should be " Connexion HID not accepted by the host "

I establish my connections using KDE Connect.

However, I don't seem to be able to use Remote NumPad with it (as a simple keyboard... Because there really isn't a great alternative to this!)

Can you add compatibility with KDE Connect?

Thanks!

I tried to run the numpad server in Sway, but it fails to start due to DISPLAY being unset:

% java -jar Remote.Numpad.Server-1.5.2-all.jar
Exception in thread "main" java.awt.HeadlessException:
No X11 DISPLAY variable was set,
but this program performed an operation which requires it.

I also tried running it using xwayland, in which case the GUI appears functional, but none of the generated keypresses actually reach running wayland applications, or even other X apps running in xwayland.

It looks like the logic for generating keypresses happens in KeyEventProcessor.kt and VirtualNumpad.kt, which are both using the AWT library which is generating the exception about DISPLAY being unset. From a quick search, I wasn't able to find much clear information about whether this library has any wayland support at all, but given its age, I suppose it doesn't.

In any case, I'd love to be able to use this application on my wayland system, but it doesn't appear possible right now.
