Application graphics (version 6+)
Starting with BOINC version 6.0, applications graphics are generated by a separate program. The only constraints on this program are:
- If invoked with --fullscreen, it must open a full-screen borderless window, and must exit when mouse or keyboard input occurs.
- Otherwise it must open a standard window; in this case it may handle mouse/keyboard input.
The BOINC graphics API (described below) provides cross-platform support for developing such a program; however, you need not use it.
The logical name of the program must be 'v6graphics'. When you set up your application version directory, give it a filename like
v6graphics=uc2_graphics_5.10_windows_intelx86.exe
