i m currently developing a fix to run youtube-dl under java

method 1 :

java bytecode ----> jvm ----> exec python ----> python -----> youtube-dl

method 2 : java bytecode ----> jvm ----> exec jython ----> jython -----> youtube-dl

these are the output if youtube-dl is run through jython directly via terminal

code : java -jar jython.jar main.py -v

output: Traceback (most recent call last): File “/home/gh/Documents/jython.jar/Lib/runpy.py”, line 161, in _run_module_as_main File “/home/gh/Documents/jython.jar/Lib/runpy.py”, line 72, in _run_code File “youtube-dl.py/main.py”, line 16, in <module> File “youtube-dl.py/youtube_dl/init.py”, line 15, in <module> File “youtube-dl.py/youtube_dl/options.py”, line 8, in <module> File “youtube-dl.py/youtube_dl/downloader/init.py”, line 3, in <module> File “youtube-dl.py/youtube_dl/downloader/common.py”, line 9, in <module> File “youtube-dl.py/youtube_dl/compat.py”, line 2599, in <module> File “youtube-dl.py/youtube_dl/compat.py”, line 2599, in <module> File “/home/gh/Documents/jython.jar/Lib/shlex.py”, line 279, in split File “/home/gh/Documents/jython.jar/Lib/shlex.py”, line 269, in next File “/home/gh/Documents/jython.jar/Lib/shlex.py”, line 96, in get_token File “/home/gh/Documents/jython.jar/Lib/shlex.py”, line 124, in read_token at org.python.core.PyString.<init>(PyString.java:64) at org.python.core.PyString.<init>(PyString.java:70) at org.python.modules.cStringIO$StringIO.read(cStringIO.java:225) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:62) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:498)
