InitializationException: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: \"Traceback (most recent call last):\"

I consider this fixed now, although it might be nice to have the full error stack from the python script if it crashes ...

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./native.py", line 44, in <module>
    import gobject
ImportError: No module named gobject

:) arch linux i686

Just uncomment it. The script doesnt use it anyway.
I'll push a fix right away.

You also need to run the script with "python2" instead of "python" (which is python3) on arch linux.

Hi Isaak,

This doesnt get easier with all the distros :-d
Do you have an idea how to do that? Is there a way to make the script
work on python3 as well?

The only option I see for this is to make a wrapper script that tests
the distro... but that would be ugly^2 ... Java calls Bash calls
Python. I don't even like the "Java calls Python" version ...

Where is the python2 binary? I could just check if it exists from the
java script and call it differently.
Does it work if you launch it like this "/usr/bin/python2 path/to/native.py" ?

I believe it should work. I pushed a fix on the trunk.

I think we should maybe rethink the design a bit. I would suggest that we have one listener that has a defined interface as it is today -- but the notification daemon (or what we call it) might be separate (as with the linux version) for all platforms.

This would allow for a simpler code base (no need for different AbstractCommonTray implementations) but only different notification daemon implementations for different platforms. This would also allow for applications or other things to interact with syncany.

The only different thing needed for different platforms then would be different startup-scripts.

What do you think about this?

Hi Isak,

I also thought about this. I find this is an excellent idea, and should be further discussed! I registered a blueprint [1] and will soon open another bug so we can discuss the details.

If you like, you can take the lead on this!

Cheers
Philipp

I think deluge is a good example for it.

There is the deluge-daemon (core) and you can start and connect gtk-interface or webui to the daemon.
