Hi Doug: The capability of creating class graphs from text is very helpful. in /course/com3362/sp99/DJ/cg-parsing I get the output: ... No path found for strategy graph: { A -> D } source: A target: D java.lang.NullPointerException at Main.main(Main.java:20) although there is a path: ClassGraph cg2 = new ClassGraph( "A = B C. B = D. C = . D = ." ); Is the an AP Library issue? Please can you check. -- Karl
