#8 Problem compiling JSpecView application

[Susi Lehtola]

I'm trying to update JMol in Fedora to the 13 series, which requires packaging JSpecView. As a common policy in *nix distributions, everything is compiled from source, so prepackaged jars can't be used.

I'm able to run ant succesfully to build the project, but for some reason I end up with an incomplete jar: ant Run results in
[java] Error: Could not find or load main class jspecview.application.MainFrame

What might be the cause of this behavior? I'm running Fedora 18, with
Apache Ant(TM) version 1.8.4 compiled on November 27 2012

Susi,
I compile from eclipse using the ant build and don't have a problem. How are you building? From build.xml there are various MAKE options identified that create the JARS

I'm building with ant.

Build library

cd JSpecViewLib
ant
cd ..

cd JSpecView
ant make-application-jar make-applet-jar

This creates the .jar files but trying to run the application results in the error of the problem report.
