Implementing remote desktop control in C++ can be achieved using third-party libraries or APIs. The most commonly used method is to utilize the Remote Desktop Services API provided by Microsoft.

The following are the basic steps to achieve remote desktop control using the Remote Desktop Services API.

Include the header files and library files for the Remote Desktop Services API in C++.

#include <windows.h>
#include <rdpencom.h>
#include <rdpappcontainerclient.h>
#include <rdpappcontainerclientapi.h>

Initialize the Remote Desktop Services API.

HRESULT hr = CoInitialize(NULL);
if (FAILED(hr)) {
    // 处理初始化失败的情况
}

3. Create an object for Remote Desktop Services API.

IRDPSRAPIInvitationManagerPtr spInvitationManager;
hr = spInvitationManager.CreateInstance(CLSID_RDPSRAPIInvitationManager);
if (FAILED(hr)) {
    // 处理创建对象失败的情况
}

Create a remote desktop connection.

IRDPSRAPIInvitationPtr spInvitation;
hr = spInvitationManager->CreateInvitation(L"Remote Assistance", L"", L"", L"", RDPSRAPI_INVITATION_TYPE_UNSOLICITED, &spInvitation);
if (FAILED(hr)) {
    // 处理创建远程桌面连接失败的情况
}

Acquire the remote desktop connection information and send it to the other party.

BSTR bstrConnectionString;
hr = spInvitation->get_ConnectionString(&bstrConnectionString);
if (SUCCEEDED(hr)) {
    // 将bstrConnectionString发送给对方
}

6. Wait for the other party to connect and begin remote desktop control.

while (true) {
    // 等待对方连接
    // 远程桌面控制逻辑
}

The above are the basic steps for implementing remote desktop control using the Remote Desktop Services API. Developers can further expand and optimize according to specific needs and situations. It is important to note that remote desktop control involves issues such as network communication and security, which developers need to handle carefully.
