Here are some more observations of my experimenting with trying to build electric from the source code:
This time around I first created a project "Electric - with capital E" which was what contained the data from SVN repository. Even though this was downloaded as a project in the workspace, it was not beng recognized by run configurations which gave me the message: Launch configuration Electric references non-existing project Electric. So I copied over the .project file from electric-java and modified it. Without doing this I cannot get anything done as by itself "Electric" does not get recognized as a project. Now I was able to click "Run". Got a window saying 10s of thousand of errors were being produced and then got the following: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sun/electric/Launcher Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: com.sun.electric.Launcher at java.net.URLClassLoader$1.run(URLClassLoader.java:202) at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) at java.net.URLClassLoader.findClass(URLClassLoader.java:190) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:306) at sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.loadClass(Launcher.java:301) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadClass(ClassLoader.java:247) Could not find the main class: com.sun.electric.Launcher. Program will exit. I am not sure where to even start to debug all this. Can you give some guidelines? I am definitely missing something in the steps. Launcher.java is under electric-java. Where can I define this path so that it can find the file when doing the build? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Electric VLSI Editor" group.
