Make all RedChannelClient hierarchy a C++ class. This allows to use virtual methods. Added a normal contructor instead or properties and g_object_new. As we remove GObject conversion macros I added a macro XXX_CAST to create a function to replace the old macro. They will be removed when more type safety is introduced. There's a new SPICE_CXX_GLIB_ALLOCATOR macro in red-common.h. This macro, added to a class define the class allocator allowing to use, in this case, GLib for allocation. This to avoid C++ library dependency and to initialize all structure to 0 (not all fields are manually initialized, will be improved with more encapsulation). Currently the methods are mainly public, access will be modified when more encapsulation (all functions in method) are done. Some classes are now defined in the header, C++ uses access to limit accessibility but for efficiency and type safety/inline and other features require types to be defined in the headers. Some fields were moved from XxxPrivate structure to class, C++ has accessibility. Many destructors are defined as protected to forbid the use of stack, this as these objects uses internal reference counting to have normal pointers. Maybe in the future pointers like std::shared_ptr could be used instead. Reference counting is now implemented very easily using atomic operations.

SPICE: Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments
=============================================================
SPICE is a remote display system built for virtual environments which
allows you to view a computing 'desktop' environment not only on the
machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and
from a wide variety of machine architectures.
Installation
------------
The SPICE package uses GNU autotools, so the build install process
follows the standard process documented in the INSTALL file. As a
quick start you can do
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var --libdir=/usr/lib
make
sudo make install
Or to install into a private user specific location
./configure --prefix=$HOME/spice
make
make install
The following mandatory dependencies are required in order to
build SPICE
Spice protocol >= 0.14.0
Pixman >= 0.17.7
OpenSSL
libjpeg
zlib
The following optional dependencies increase the available
functionality
Cyrus-SASL
libcacard >= 2.5.1 (Smartcard support)
Opus >= 1.0.0 (Opus audio encoding support)
LZ4 (LZ4 compression support)
GStreamer >= 1.0.0
Communication
-------------
To communicate with the development team, or to post patches
there is a technical mailing list:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/spice-devel
There is also a mailing list for new release announcements:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-announce/
To view known bugs, or report new bugs, in SPICE visit
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/issues/new?
Bugs found when using an OS distribution's binary packages should
be reported to the OS vendors' own bug tracker first.
The latest SPICE code can be found in GIT at:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/
