OpenCyc

there are a lot of threads about the Java Api and how Java programmers seem to be having trouble linking it to Cyc - why does no one answer these queries? Is it becuase no one knows? Is it becuase you all don't like JAva or NooBs?

I can't get the Java API to interface with Cyc either and I'm beginning to lose my patience with Open Cyc.

Don't the makers want Java developers to work with their product? How can you encourage open source developement if you don't answer fundamental questions?

There are loads and loads of threads about people having problems getting their Java API to work with Cyc. Come on, someone at least answer one of them.

This is the deal

I run the API demo, while I have Cyc on the go, and nothing happens. The program compiles fine, it even runs but it doesn't do anything. All I get is a black command prompt with the words 'connecting to open cyc' - that's it nothing else happens.

If someone starts a thread complaining that they can't get it to work with some C program, everyone seems to be really helpful but the Java questions are allways ignored

Looking through the forum I can find at least 10 threads related to OpenCyc and the fact that it seems doesn't seem to work too well with Java Api

Hi, I also had the same problem and a little change in the code solved the problem for me, for details see; https://sourceforge.net/projects/opencyc/forums/forum/85728/topic/3476514

Hi , and excuse for the informal interruption I´m student from ISPEJAE Institute,CUBA and i working in a desktop aplications, that use OpenCyc v2.0querys like: isa asertions(for instance and example relation between term ) genls asertions(for class-subclas herarchy dependence ) I did use the default constructor to create an instance of CycAccess CycAccess access = new CycAccess(); ,but previusly click the C:\opencyc-2.0\scripts\run-cyc.bat ´s srcrip to start cyc server. It shows the following in a comand prompt: Start time: Sun May 16 09:42:58 CEST 2010 Lisp implementation: Cycorp Java SubL Runtime Environment JVM: Sun Microsystems Inc.

CYC(1): and the aplications works!!!!!!!!!!,but only as a batch process, a thread( an aplications working with directories, no user interfase). The problems comes when i try to use a java frame,with buttoms for user interfase interaction. It seem that is impossible to use AWT. Anyway i´m working in Eclipse Release 3.2.0 and JRE 5.0 My stack trace comes as : org.opencyc.api.CycApiException: Invalid attempt to synchronously communicate with Cyc from the AWT event thread. org.opencyc.api.DefaultSubLWorkerSynch: Id: null Server: host localhost, cfaslPort 3614 Status: Working Incremental results: false Timeout: 0 msecs Command: (CYC-IMAGE-ID) Please sorry for the unplacent bothering,but could you please help me or know someone-were that could........ 8]
