2014-08-01Add cancel button for EIP connection.kali
Closes: #4035 This falls in the "quick" workaround category. A proper state machine that extends the four basic connection states is hence needed. We have to accomodate design to have a connection-oriented state machine in the backend (I would favor a twisted protocol for this), and a more lightweight one that conducts the gui-level changes (ie, change the actions / buttons / labels accordingly). Since this "cancel" functionality has been long postponed, I chose to do one more ugly hack here, that is, show and hide dance with a button that just calls the bitmask-root to kill the vpn process. It should work well enough until we get to the reorganization needed for a clean process control for eip.
2014-07-21Add heartbeat to check if backend is alive.Ivan Alejandro
Send a 'ping' request every 2 secs to ensure that the backend is running. Use polling instead of recv on the backend_proxy. This was already implemented for the signaler.
2014-07-14Use specific settings for backend.Ivan Alejandro
This way we get rid of Qt on the backend side. The use of QSettings in the backend was breaking the app on OSX.
2014-07-14Ask the backend for the country code.Ivan Alejandro
Remove global variable in favor of a helper method that returns the country code. Needed in order to split backend/frontend.
