Dear Shameera,

>>>As i felt it is required some knowledge about BioSQL so is it a good point to start my next step????

I am sorry but I do not see how BioSQL relates to this project. Perhaps more explanation from your side would have helped me to see the connection.

>>>I have some problem with checkout and installing BioJava3

Me too, I was unable to checkout the BioJava Live from svn://code.open-bio.org/biojava/biojava-live/trunk due to the following error

" A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable host.
svn: Can't connect to host 'code.open-bio.org': A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable host. "

However, a git read-only mirror http://svn.github.com/biojava/biojava.git seems to work fine, at least I was able to checkout the project.
So I'd suggest you to try that.

>>>2. And i downloaded biojava3(v3.0.1) tar.gz and extracted it, as in the Biojava : started says i want to set the CLASSPATH variable as

Have you downloaded biojava-all package from http://biojava.org/download/bj3.0.1/biojava3.0.1-all.tar.gz or was this something else? I cannot really comment on that one, as I have never tried this. I am coping this message to the BioJava list let’s see if someone else is aware of any problems with this package.


I hope this helps.

Regards,
Peter

Sorry for the delay,


I went through some sources and got a basic understanding of the project, and I referred some links in the cookbook also.As i felt it is required some knowledge about BioSQL so is it a good point to start my next step????

I have some problem with checkout and installing BioJava3

1. I logged in using openid log in and tried to checkout via Developer SVN, but it is asking password for three times and then shows "svn: Network connection closed unexpectedly" then i used a USB modem but it gives same result.

2. And i downloaded biojava3(v3.0.1) tar.gz and extracted it, as in the Biojava : started says i want to set the CLASSPATH variable as "export CLASSPATH=/home/thomas/ biojava-live.jar:/home/thomas/bytecode.jar:/home/thomas/commons-cli.jar:/home/thomas/commons-collections- 2.1.jar:/home/thomas/commons-dbcp-1.1.jar:/home/thomas/commons-pool-1.1.jar:." </home/thomas> change according to my directory, in UNIX Bourne-type shells, but i couldn't find those .jar files in my directory.

Thanks

    Hi Shameera,

    >>>Yes as you said, equations are not the case. But i needed to
    know will the equations be provided or not :)

    No one asks you to devise the equations yourself all you need is
    to be able to read the paper and get the equation out of it.
    Please note that this is YOUR project and a mentor is there to
    help but not to provide everything for you. I think the equations
    are not hard to find besides if I just give you the equations you
    will not understand them thoroughly. As I said before you need to
    read the papers and by the source I meant the papers not the
    source code. If this is something that sounds too hard for you
    then, you may want to reconsider your decision contributing to
    BioJava project. BioJava is not only about Java but about Biology
    as well. Ability and will to find the information you need is a
    crucial for the success in any project.
    In addition to it there are plenty of implementations for the
    method that you set to implement. My advice to you would be to
    Google for molecular weight, extinction coefficient, instability
    index etc. I am sure you will find plenty of information on these
    topics.

    To get you started I am giving you the link to the software that
    calculates half of the properties you need. There are formulas and
    plenty of documentation http://expasy.org/tools/protparam-doc.html

    But please next time come back with a little more specific questions.

    P.S. I do not envisage any GUI interfaces for the library you want
    to develop however, as a student you are free to propose this if
    you think this would be of benefit to the project.

    Regards,
    Peter

    And also i'm willing to see those equations. Could you please
    help me to find out those equations,
    then i could figure it out how to apply multi-threading
    technology to speed up the process.

    As i think i need to also develop a GUI except to the methods
    isn't it???


    <Also I believe that you are much better off reading the sources and
    understanding how these things work>

    Yes now im referring to biojava source code . But im in a little
    bit confusion about how to get a start and where the start should
    be?

        It is good that you are interested in the project.
        Did you try to find the formula yourself? I will be happy to
        help you if you cannot find them, but really
        this must not be hard. Also I believe that you are much
        better off reading the sources and
        understanding how these things work than just have a formula.

        Regards,
        Peter
