Hello,

I launched java-propose-classpath on (for instance) the jar in the packages jebl2 and libdistlib-java.

The line

    find: ‘jcf-dump’: No such file of directory

is printed several times and the program exits with no further input.

Thanks for your attention,
Pierre Gruet

Hi,

I am raising the sevrity to important as I tested java-propose-classpath
on several other jars and naver had it work.

Feel free to contact me if I can provide further information.

Bye,
Pierre

Hi Pierre,

jcf-dump was part of gcj [1], and so that code hasn't worked for quite a
while.  We can look at reworking java-propose-classpath to use javap
instead.

Cheers,
tony
