I found the problem. The file

biojava-live.jar

needs to be added to the CLASSPATH

This means that the page
http://biojava.org/wiki/BioJava:GetStarted
needs to be corrected!

cheers, Peter

Hello.

Before typing the javac instruction, type the following to check what
your classpath actually contains:

 echo $CLASSPATH

If this doesn't immediately 'look right' (i.e. it has curly braces or
variable names embedded in it, or doesn't match where you think the
files are), then this'll be where the problem is.

If you can't see any obvious problems with it, then post it as a reply
to this message and we can take a closer look.

cheers,
Richard

Try export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:...

Basically, remove the "squiggly braces"

Hi Biojava,

I am entirely new to Biojava and have limited Java experience (C is more my
thing), and so this is almost certainly a dumb question, but I cannot seem
to find an answer in the online docs. I am running debian 4 linux and have:

java version "1.6.0_06"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_06-b02)
Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 10.0-b22, mixed mode)



I have downloaded the biojava code, unpacked it, and set the CLASSPATH in
bashrc :

BIOJAVA_BASE=/home/peter/bin/biojava/biojava-live_1.6
export CLASSPATH=${BIOJAVA_BASE}/biojava.jar
export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${BIOJAVA_BASE}/commons-cli.jar
export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${BIOJAVA_BASE}/commons-collections-2.1.jar
export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${BIOJAVA_BASE}/bytecode.jar
export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${BIOJAVA_BASE}/commons-dbcp-1.1.jar
export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:${BIOJAVA_BASE}/commons-pool-1.1.jar
export CLASSPATH=${CLASSPATH}:.


This also goes through without error from the command line. However, when I
try to compile one of the test programs as instructed on the page:
http://biojava.org/wiki/BioJava:GetStarted

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/bin/biojava/biojava-live_1.6/demos$ javac seq/TestEmbl.java


I get a bunch of errors, apparently javac cannot find the imports it needs.
(see bottom of this mail).

I would greatly appreciate any tips how to get started here!
Thanks, Peter
