Hi Ed:
you are right, setting the CLASSPATH correctly requires special
work. 

If you want to use Demeter/Java, your CLASSPATH environment
variable has to include: /proj/demsys/demjava/classes

If you want to run an Applet, set CLASSPATH to empty using:
setenv CLASSPATH

You can check the setting, using
echo $CLASSPATH

Unfortunately, a better solution is not known at this point but systems
is working on it.

Subject: java and javac scripts

Systems has put links in /arch/com/bin and /arch/unix/bin for "java"
and "javac", respectively, so I've removed the "java" script in
/proj/demsys/demjava/bin.  If you're running demjava-compiled
programs, please make sure you have "/proj/demsys/demjava/classes"
present in your $CLASSPATH environment variable, so the Java VM can
find the "demeter.*" classes.  (You should probably set it in your
~/.software file.)  Please let me know if you're still having problems
with any of these scripts, on either SunOS 4 or DEC Alpha.

Subject: Problem when running java

Hi Professor Lieberherr,

When I run java Main < statistics.input in my home directory or in the
course directory(in the capacity-check directory), I get this error:

ld.so: warning: /usr/lib/libc.so.1.8 has older revision than expected 9
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: demeter/Ident
  at Parser.Ident(Parser.java:352)
  at Parser.Simple(Parser.java:273)
  at Parser.Item(Parser.java:260)
  at Parser.Nonempty_Item_List(Parser.java:341)
  at Parser.Item_List(Parser.java:330)
  at Parser.Container(Parser.java:243)
  at Container.parse(statistics.java:40)
  at Main.main(statistics.java:281)


I set the path: set path = ($path /proj/demsys/demjava/bin )

I didn't set the classpath environment variable because it interfered with
running applets on the net.  Is this the cause of the problem?  I am a bit
confused on when to set this variable and when not to.  Thanks.

Edward
