[Biojava-l] Genbank Problem

[cantey.lg@pg.com]

Using the code below:

      File genbankFile = new File(args[0]);
      BufferedReader gReader = new BufferedReader(
            new     InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(genbankFile)));
      SequenceIterator sI = SeqIOTools.readGenbank(gReader);

      while(sI.hasNext())
     {
        Sequence seq = sI.nextSequence();
       System.out.println(seq.getName() + " has " + seq.countFeatures() + " features");
        printFeatures(seq, System.out, "");
     }
------------------------------------------------
I encountered the error below:

The xerces.jar file was in the CLASSPATH....

Any ideas ???

Thanks for any help !!!
