LOL Sorry dude, never even heard of Vala before

Its syntax was familiar enough that it was trivial to convert it. Your Vala code was very helpful.

So you've got a desktop file looking for com.nokia.javalauncher but a service file only defining org.maemo.javalauncher.
This is also true for osso_initialize(), so the call to that must also be amended.

Thanks for confirming this. I was wondering about it myself, but there was so much conflicting text in various docs (I saw both "com.nokia" and "org.maemo" out there) that I mentally flipped a coin to decide.

didn't work for me; mime_cb was never called. Maybe I'm doing it on the wrong DBusConnection, but I dunno.

I'm not surprised. I was desperately trying to find some way to force/ensure DBus messages got flushed to the mime_cb callback in that tight loop.

That makes good sense to me.

Awesome. I'll get all this info neatly filed away in my head, built into a .deb, and the whole shebang put up on garage.maemo.org as soon as possible

HUGE thanks for giving me an express-route education in these technicalities, qwerty12

The documentation out there is far from textbook quality - I've had to dig through headers so much!
