Hi all,

I am having trouble reading a mol file. The mol file was written from
GaussView. The mol file describes benzene with aromatic bonds between
the carbons. I read the mol file using CDK (MDLReader) and printed the
smiles string. The smiles doesn't contain the aromatic bonds, neither
does it contain the alternating single/double bonds in the ring. Does
MDLReader parse aromatic bond types (the bond type is listed as 4 in
mol file)? I am using Java 1.5.0, RHEL 4, CDK 1.0.1. The same problem
persists with CDK 1.0.3 as well.

I am attaching the mol file and the java file I used to printout the
smiles string.

Thanks,
Bala.
