3.2.5.1.2 Processing a Monitor Ready PDU

  • Article

The fields of the Monitor Ready PDU are as specified in section 2.2.2.2.

The clipHeader field MUST be processed as specified in section 3.1.5.1. If the PDU is valid, the client SHOULD do the following:

  1. Send a Clipboard Capabilities PDU (as specified in section 3.2.5.1.3) to the server if it received the capabilities from the server.

  2. Send a Temporary Directory PDU (as specified in section 3.2.5.1.4) to the server if it is necessary to inform the server of a location on the local client file system that MUST be used to deposit files being copied to the client.

After possibly sending the Clipboard Capabilities PDU and Temporary Directory PDU, the client MUST send a Format List PDU to the server, as specified in section 3.1.5.2.1. This ensures that the peer system clipboards are in sync.
