Hi all,

I'm working on three java chemistry programs (cdk, jcpcdk and jmol, see 
mentors.debian.net APT archive), and I have cdk compiled with gcj 3.3.2 (from 
testing).

When I run the cdk-view shell wrapper which does:

/usr/bin/java -cp list-of-jars org.openscience.cdk.applications.Viewer $*

I get this error:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: 
org.openscience.cdk.tools.LoggingTool.<init>(Ljava/lang/String;Z)V
        at org.openscience.cdk.applications.Viewer.<init>(Viewer.java:62)
        at org.openscience.cdk.applications.Viewer.main(Viewer.java:242)

I get this error often when compiling with an old Sun compiler, and running it 
with a newer compiler, or in this case, compiling with gcj 3.3.2 and running 
with Sun's java 1.4.2... Java is supposed to be platform independant :(

Can anyway shed some light on this issue?

kind regards,

Egon Willighagen
