Empty machine list in VBox 6 #30

Open dev-rand0m opened 5 years ago

dev-rand0m commented 5 years ago

When using VirtualBox 6, the virtual machine list is empty in the "select machine" menu. So the app is unusable. Can you fix this?

I suspect this is because the API has changed. VBoxHeadlessTray will need to be updated to support the new API.

This may just be a case of recompiling against the new API, but might require some code changes. I'll take a look if I get chance.

Love VBoxHeadlessTray and would love to see VirtualBox 6.x support! <3

There is a version for VirtualBox 6.x here: https://www.toptensoftware.com/vboxheadlesstray/

(It says 6.0.4, but it seems to work newer 6.0.x versions just fine.)

I guess it just hasn't been added to the readme: https://github.com/toptensoftware/VBoxHeadlessTray/blob/master/readme.markdown#download-links

There are issues with VirtualBox 6.1 where the API doesn't seem to function correctly. I've logged it as a bug, but no response. See here:

JordanMagnuson commented 4 years ago

Yes, unfortunately I'm using VirtualBox 6.1 :(

toptensoftware commented 4 years ago

Yep and I can't really do anything about this.

JordanMagnuson commented 4 years ago

@toptensoftware No worries, I get that it's not your issue. Thanks for following up with Vbox in any case!

JordanMagnuson commented 4 years ago

It looks like there's still been no response on the vbox ticket. I take it there's been no progress on this?

toptensoftware commented 4 years ago

I just tried the latest build of VirtualBox 6.1 and this issue seems to be fixed so I've put up a new build of VBoxHeadlessTray. Get it here:

Let me know if any issues.
