[Biojava-l] Install question: classpath and use of jar files in compiling TestEmbl.java

[Andy Yates]

That isn't the the problem and will actually cause more issues. By 
placing the library files in that directory you are exposing only the 
JRE to the libraries. Anyway the issue here is what you are trying to 
compile.

If you javac /homes/trodkey/biojava/demos/seq/TestEmbl.java you are 
telling the compiler that there is a class to compile which is located 
in the package homes.trodkey.biojava.org.biojava.bio. My suggestion is 
change directory to the root of biojava package and try the compilation 
from there.

Also check that your .java file's package declaration shows:

package demos.seq;

Otherwise this will fail again.
