What did you use to compile this? I don't believe hyphens are legal in

I used regular
*javac -cp blah:blah:blah encog-java/customGA/*.java*
the compiler did not complain because the actual package declaration
uses underscore instead of hyphen.
yes hyphens are indeed illegal... that is, you cannot write "package
foo-bar;" but you can write "package foo_bar;" when in fact being in
the "foo-bar" folder.
It will be hard to use this in clojure, clojure converts hyphens to
underscores automatically behind the scenes in package names. But your
package actually has a (possibly invalid) hyphen in it's name, so the
mangling prevents your class from being found.
exactly!!! when I ask from clojure (:import [encog-java.customGA
aClass]) clojure should convert the hyphen to match the actual package
found in the declaration of class files. UNderscores are certainly legal
characters...the thing is, it doesn't matter whether i use an underscore
or not when importing - I always get the same error which makes me
slightly suspicious...
In my desperation, I went into my ~/.m2 directory and actually modified
the jar by hand so the folder "encog-java" was renamed to "encog_java"
but again the same story! I don't get it!!!
