Hi Sean and Joyce,
I'm trying hard to get ytex running as well. I've followed each step you've
outlined but I'm somewhat stuck now.
What I did:
- Tried to compile and run with Java 7 --> not working
- Tried to compile and run with Java 8 --> not working
- Tried to update Spring to 3.2.18.RELEASE in pom.xml
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-core</artifactId>
<version>3.2.18.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-context</artifactId>
<version>3.2.18.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
<groupId>org.springframework</groupId>
<artifactId>spring-web</artifactId>
<version>3.2.18.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>
<dependency>
leading to the Exception in thread "main"
java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: class
org.springframework.core.LocalVariableTableParameterNameDiscoverer$ParameterNameDiscoveringVisitor
has interface org.springframework.asm.ClassVisitor as super class
Could you briefly describe what you did to get ytex running? Any help is
greatly appreciated.
