[Java-gnome-developer] compiling java-gnome-4.0.9 stable

[Adam A. <eid...@gm...>]

hello,

i am about to do work for the school, which involves creating a Java 
program (surprisingly) on any topic.

i have chosen to do a media player, or more precisely music player. the 
aim is to write a lightweight, powerful player for the GTK/Gnome 
environment (as i plan to use it on my machine afterwards :))

now, the problem.

the issue occurs at the 'make' step of the building process. i always 
end up with a message similar to:

"
Exception in thread "main" java.io.IOException: can't find class file 
java/lang/Object.class in 
java.net.URLClassLoader{urls=[file:/home/eidam/Software/Dossier/java-gnome/java-gnome-4.0.9/tmp/bindings/,file:/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-4.3-1.5.0.0/jre/lib/rt.jar], 
parent=gnu.gcj.runtime.SystemClassLoader{urls=[file:/home/eidam/Software/Dossier/JMF-2.1.1e/lib/jmf.jar,file:./,file:./], 
parent=gnu.gcj.runtime.ExtensionClassLoader{urls=[], parent=null}}}
"

i see that it searches in some weird directories, i am especially 
worried about the 
"/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-gcj-4.3-1.5.0.0/jre/lib/rt.jar" thing, as i 
have java sdk 1.6 up and running.

i would appreciate any help in getting rid of this problem.
