Hi all, I am totally new to clojure and this is a very simple question, but I spent the last two hours trying to figure this out and I need help.
I'm not able to use the clojure-contrib library and I am not able to find instructions here on this group and anywhere on the web. Maybe because this should be easy, but for me it isn't. I downloaded the clojure-contrib.jar but I can't find anywhere instruction on the set-up (where to put the file, if some else is needed, ecc) to begin with. Actually I have the clojure-contrib.jar file in the same directory as the clojure.jar, but I don't know how to run it. I've tried running the REPL normally, but when try using (ns mynamespace (:use clojure.contrib.string)) in my code file (or using :require in place of :use) i get this error: java.io.FileNotFoundException: Could not locate clojure/contrib/ string__init.class or clojure/contrib/string.clj on classpath: (NO_SOURCE_FILE:2) I thought then that the library must be loaded in the same command with clojure.jar. I tried to look on the web and found some script and I tried to figure out what to do from them. What I tried last is java -cp clojure.jar clojure.main clojure-contrib.jar and I get this error Exception in thread "main" java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: PK in this context (clojure-contrib.jar:0) I'm not sure that what I'm doing is correct, but it's all I was able to figure out in two hours of trial and error. I don't know anything about running java from the command line. Every page I find on the internet on clojure-contrib just assumes that everything works and just uses the library. I hope that someone can help me. Thank you very much. Matteo -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
