Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/aspectj/lang/Signature

Hey
I have been trying to use compiler for Argos...and badly the person who developed it is not reachable.The compiler is given in jar file and needs java 1.5 ,java bdd, and aspect j 1.5 to be in the class path...but whenever i issue (as specified) java5 backends.ArgosCompiler

i get the error

ps: java 5 is an alias for my jdk/1.5.0/java/bin


just search for Argos Compiler on google and follow the first result...have a look...


I have set the classpath,

glieres:~/aspectj1.5/bin/argosCompiler.jar_FILES$ echo $CLASSPATH
/usr/local/soft/jdk/1.5.0/:/home/saxena/aspectj1.5/lib/aspectjrt.jar:/home/saxena/javaBDD/JavaBDD/


and java_home

glieres:~/aspectj1.5/bin/argosCompiler.jar_FILES$ echo $JAVA_HOME
/usr/local/soft/jdk/1.5.0/



I have tried it many times..but I keep getting the same error as mentioned above.

and my java version :
glieres:~/aspectj1.5/bin/argosCompiler.jar_FILES$ java5 -version
java version "1.5.0_06"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.5.0_06-b05)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.5.0_06-b05, mixed mode, sharing)

I tried it and managed to get it running, here's what I did if it helps:

Downloaded aspect1.5.0 javabdd argosCompiler.jar

I ran the installer for aspect-1.5.0.jar - java -jar aspect-1.5.0.jar and installed it in my home directory

Unpacked the javabdd to my Desktop
argosCompiler.jar was downloaded to my desktop too

ran:

java -cp /home/gary/aspectj1.5/lib/aspectjrt.jar:/home/gary/Desktop/JavaBDD/javabdd-1.0b2.jar:/home/gary/Desktop/argosCompiler.jar backends.ArgosCompiler


and it appears to work (what ever it is)

hey thanks ...i was doing the same thing but a little stupidity..

java5 -cp /home/saxena/aspectj1.5/lib/aspectjrt.jar : JavaBDD/javabdd-1.0b2.jar :argosCompiler.jar backends.ArgosCompiler what i was doing was using the tab fill in the folder names and which led to mean something else to shell...
