Screencasting GNOME Under Wayland

[M.Hanny Sabbagh <mhsabbagh outlook com>]

Hello.


I am working on a simple screen recorder for GNOME under Wayland, built with GTK+.


Because Wayland doesn't allow capturing the screen due to security reasons. I was trying to capture the 
desktop in the same way as the built-in screencast tool. Using the D-Bus API.


This is the last thing I have reached: https://pastebin.mozilla.org/8969728


However, it gives me only one frame. I thought it would run a loop in the background or something until 
StopScreencast is called again. What's the thing I am missing here?


Thank you.
