Summary: Jmol conflicts with CDK, Obrador, etc.

Initial Comment:
Jmol.jar includes particluar versions of com.obrador.
cdk.jar includes particluar versions of Jmol, etc.

This makes it impossible to develop applications which need functionalities 
from several packages!
Reason:
Assume you want to use "structgen" from "cdk", latest version, and something 
else from the latest Jmol in an application.
Fact is that jmol.jar and cdk.jar come with non-latest versions of other 
packages included.

So, in you new application you need to specify the latest cdk.jar, and jmol.jar 
to the JVM. However, cdk.jar includes and older version of jmol, and jmol 
includes another version e.g. of com.obrador.
Depending of the Java package lookup sequence, you will encounter compilation 
and/or execution problems, because several incompatible versions are present, 
and it is practically not manageable to provide the right version for the right 
application.

The only solution would be: When Jmol e.g. needs a particular version of 
com.obrador and wants to include this library in its jar file, them the package 
must be renamed there, e.g. com.obradorXXX.

If cdk wants to include a particular Jmol version in its jar file, the the jmol 
packages must be renamed there e.g. to JmolYYY.

There is no circular dependency anymore. I am not sure which jars have
been used (versions, where downloaded), but the current CDK jars do not
contain Jmol, and does not depend on com.obrador either without Jmol
support. I do agree that we could me more clear on which versions work
nicely together. I recommend to take the versions from Bioclipse, where
both are tightly integrated.

Bruno, if you need help with the latest releases, just email me
personally. Closing this bug now.

This is certainly a concern. If you can identify exactly what is needed in
Jmol for your specific needs, that might help. Certainly, for example, if
we need to update the com.obrador version, we should do that. 

Other than that, the simple solution I suppose is for you to do minor
changes such as this on your own within the Eclipse environment and put the
pieces together as you need to. I realize that's not an ideal solution.

My 2 cts ...

Renaming a package is not really a clean option: that would mean modifying
the source code of the package also.

Would a Jmol.jar with no dependencies included be suitable for your need
?
