what is the correct com.skype.* usage with Linux?

On Linux (Ubuntu 14.04), this code hangs after “got contact list” is printed:

Examining the library, com.skype.connector would seem to use JNI to connect with Skype. At least for me, the connection never seems to occur.

Is it even possible to use this to connect to skype? How do I know why why it’s not (apparently) connecting?

It doesn’t quite have the “wow” factor. Also, it just works on Linux, not sure how it would work in Windows. (You have to have Skype running first, then execute the bytecode.)
