I would love to give Alex Zhang a fix, but I have
not worked out all the issues yet. The main issue with Skype version change was
the launcher code did not recognize the start of the Skype phone call. That
causes it to hang and eventually give an error dialog about not connecting in 60
seconds.
I have a fix for that, but now I find that the code
is no longer getting the log from Tellme. It may turn out to be just that I am
so far away out here across the ocean that something times out. I see that
happen a lot from Firefox when I try to access web pages in the US, and
getting the log from Tellme is nothing more than a series of HTTP requests. I
have to investigate what is going on with that.
Hmm, thinking on the fly as I write this, maybe I
could commit that fix and someone in the US could run a quick test. It will be a
good lesson for me as to how to accommodate the longer latency -- if that turns
out to be all it is.
If I check the fix in for the Skype
connection (I have tested it), can someone rev the daily build? Right now
the daily build has not been happening very daily. I will post to this list
after I check in.
As for other matters:
a) My committer account into CVS has been revived,
and I can check in/out.
b) I don't seem to be able to update bugzilla
anymore. Procedures say contact the PL, so I have.
c) Someone asked about the effect of Skype 3.0. I
have determined that Skype 2.5 and Skype 3.0 behave identically in all the
aspects that affect this operation.
d) I have only tested this fix with Eclipse 3.2.1.
I can make no comment about 3.3.0M4.

Actually I am just
about to complain. :>
I am using Eclipse
3.3.0M4, EVT 1.0.0, and Skype 3.0.0.198. And I followed the exact steps
in the Getting Started tutorial. When I click Run, I got the status
Launching (50%) for ever. I guess this is related to the bug or a
version incompatible issue.
Can anyone give me a
working version combination, including eclipse, wtp, vtp, and skype?
Thank
you,

Bug 152675
Back in August, reports were
received that the VTP Tellme browser launcher plugin did not work with Skype
2.5.
I figured out what the problem was
and suggested a fix. Brent went ahead and put that fix into the code and
checked it in. The trouble is that I was in the throes of retiring and leaving
Tellme, and Brent was in the throes of leaving IBM. I think we both got
distracted, and the fix was not tested.
Well, it did not work, and still
does not work.
I plan to fix it for real. But
since I have been inactive for about 6 months while I moved to
New
Zealand, my Eclipse accounts have gone stale.
I have to get that sorted.
Since there have been no
complaints, I suppose this has not been a heavily-used component ;-), but it
is part of the project, and should work.
