@pizzaman please incorporate @jjoshau's changes to the script

And also make it so that charles uses $XDG_CONFIG_HOME by default instead of ~/ for configuration storage

@bruceutut

Everytime i start charles, it tries to touch a file named '^-' in my home directory.

this was annoying me as well; after digging in, it's happening in the startup script /usr/bin/charles

hash java 2>^- || { echo >&2 "Charles couldn't start: java not found. Please install java to use Charles."; exit 1; }

removing 2>^- did the trick, for me

On Manjaro I got:

Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your installation and try again Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: com/xk72/charles/gui/MainWithClassLoader has been compiled by a more recent version of the Java Runtime (class file version 53.0), this version of the Java Runtime only recognizes class file versions up to 52.0

Edit: oke, that was a noob question, but for others, which might stumble across the same issue:

Next to JRE-8 I installed JRE-14 and made that default.

sudo pacman -S jre-openjdk

List which are installed:

archlinux-java status

Set the default:

sudo archlinux-java set java-14-openjdk

@D3SOX What problems are you having? AFAIK this package works well.

For everyone who also has problems with this package I created another package which is built using the deb package https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/charles-bin/ This is a bit larger because it includes the JDK provided by Charles but therefore the package itself does not need the Java dependency

Thanks for maintaining this...

Everytime i start charles, it tries to touch a file named '^-' in my home directory.
Does anyone have a solution for that ?

PKGBUILD for 4.5.4 if anyone wants it https://gist.github.com/erfanio/cf39ba13ce6b47b47507a7985b402146

How do we notify the maintainer to update the package?

https://gist.github.com/txtsd/df30ca46d66a8836f74a81616ccf1150

Here's a PKGBUILD for 4.5.1

It works fine with openjdk10 and up

cwrau commented on 2019-04-24 13:12 (UTC)

@JohnMaguire That can be fixed by explicitly using java8:

JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk/jre charles

I was coming here to ask if that can be specified inside the /usr/bin/charles script?
