Mac OS X (Lion 64 bit, Mac OS JDK 1.6) issue

[evluhin]

Try to start com.skype.sample.ShowVersion and get an error:

Exception in thread "main" com.skype.SkypeException: Loading libskype.jnilib failed. ~/git/skype-java-api/target/classes/libskype.jnilib: Library not loaded: @loader_path/Skype.Framework Referenced from: ~/git/skype-java-api/target/classes/libskype.jnilib Reason: no suitable image found. Did find: /Users/evluhin/git/skype-java-api/target/classes/Skype.Framework: file too short ~/git/skype-java-api/target/classes/Skype.Framework: file too short at com.skype.Utils.convertToSkypeException(Utils.java:61) at com.skype.Utils.getProperty(Utils.java:157) at com.skype.Skype.getVersion(Skype.java:200) at com.skype.sample.ShowVersion.main(ShowVersion.java:27)

To fix it just comment line: writeStreamToFile(skypeFrameworkStream, skypeFramework);

in ConnectorUtils.rehydrateFrameworkAtLibraryPath(String param) method.

because somehow ConnectorUtils.class.getResourceAsStream("/"+"Skype.Framework"); method returns stream of the same file and in result we have zero size Skype.Framework file (input stream and just opened output stream are opened on the same resource). I think it actually is not an issue of the skype-api but It would be great to add check if output folder (classes) contains Skype.Framework For example add lines:

URL skypeFrameworkResourceUrl = ConnectorUtils.class.getResource("/"+"Skype.Framework"); if(!skypeFramework.getAbsolutePath().equals(skypeFrameworkResourceUrl.getPath())){ .... copy....

Hi,

Sorry for the late response, I was on vacation. I'll look into this issue.

hello. i don't get it working on mac os x lion 64 nor 32 bit version.

With the proposed -d32 i can call Skype.getProfile() for example. Skype.getProfile().getCity() (whatever i call) doesn't work. Skype.call(..) doesn't work too. I don't see any Exceptions at all. It just hangs somewhere..

Is it planned to be running in 64-bit version as well someday soon?

[tpepitas]

maybe to be more precise. i used version 1.1. i now saw that there is a newer version 1.3. Changing the dependency to 1.3 shows me the error skype-java-api:jar:1.3 is missing.. i guess the 1.3 is not available in the repository. thanks for your effort

Hi tpepitas!

I tried this api under macosx lion 64 bit. Everything works, but there is a strange thing: after start your java application you have to focus skype (click on the dock) otherwise the app can't connect to the skype client. It's very strange...

About making skype-java-api running natively under Mac 64 bit: the problem is that Skype's Framework API for Mac OS is 32bit only. They never recompiled a 64bit version...And skype-java-api mac's native library needs Skype's Framework to work. So, it is not possible to compile the native library targeting 64bit unless they release a 64bit framework.

Anyway, I didn't test skype-java-api extensively under MacOS... in fact, I just tested under Leopard, for which I have a virtual box image. So far, most of the tests worked... there is a test application that comes with Skype.Framework.. did you ever tried to run it and check whether it works?

I tried under Osx Lion but just a quick look. My first impressions: skype client have to be in focus otherwise my app can't connect. Some API calls seems doesn't work: for example ChatMessageReceived, and ChatMessageSent. I don't have much time to find out what's the problem and it's possible that I made some mistake.

The first post problem has been addressed and fixed.
