About:
SpiceProtocol provides the essential header files and protocol definitions required to build applications compatible with the SPICE remote desktop protocol. It serves as the core specification layer, enabling developers to implement SPICE clients and servers. This package is crucial for anyone developing software that interacts with SPICE-based virtual desktop infrastructure.

Key Features:

Core protocol definitions and constants
Stable C header files for integration
Standardized API for client/server communication
Supports graphics, input, and audio channels

Use Cases:

Building custom SPICE client applications
Developing SPICE-compatible server components
Integrating SPICE protocol support into virtualization tools

Alternatives:

VNC protocol libraries – VNC is a simpler protocol but lacks SPICE's advanced features like seamless audio/video streaming and device redirection.
