I am having difficulty compiling and running my Java code, intended to allow me to interface Java with a shared object for Vensim, a simulation modelling package.
The following code compiles without error:
javac -d . -cp ./apache-log4j-1.2.16/log4j-1.2.16.jar:./vensim.jar SpatialModel.java VensimHelper.java VensimException.java VensimContextRepository.java
However, when I try to run the following:
java -cp ./apache-log4j-1.2.16/log4j-1.2.16.jar:./vensim.jar SpatialModel vars
so I'm not sure what the problem is - can anyone please help me out? Thanks.
