Java WS VirtualBoxManager 4.3.26 Incompatability

[Elz]

I am porting code built using the older 4.1 API to 4.3 which started a group of VMs using the VirtualBoxManager (as per the sdk doc 10.3 example)

Code: Select all

VirtualBoxManager mgr = VirtualBoxManager.createInstance(null);
...
mgr.startVm(vm.getName(), vmProps.getType(), 7000);

The VirtualBoxManager.startVm() method seems to have been removed from the java bindings (the example is incorrect in the sdk docs and still shows this method).

What is the correct method to use to start a vm now?

The corresponding method is now IMachine::launchVMProcess().

I changed my call from:

Code: Select all

mgr.startVm(vm.getName(), vmProps.getType(), 7000);

to

Code: Select all

vm.launchVMProcess(mgr.getSessionObject(), vmProps.getType(), " ");

The first few vms start as expected, then I get errors throws for the launchVMProcess for all other vms I am trying to start:

VirtualBox error: The given session is busy
