Hi Guys,

So I've stripped everything right back to the bare bones and made it
as simple as possible,

I have followed the folder and package conventions as outlined earlier
in this thread and as used by Christian,

I now have something that builds using the very simple ant build
script - so a step in the right direction,

You can grab the source code from [1]

I still have a (different) JNI issue though :-(

When I run the javah -jni -classpath from the command prompt I get the
message "No classes were specified on the command line. Try -help"

I googled the problem and found i needed to use the fully qualified
class name which I did
i.e. org.transterpreter.jeditsparkleplugin.JEditSparklePlugin but that
also returns the same message.

If i attempt to run the command without the -classpath option I get a
similar error:
"javadoc: error - Class org.transterpreter. etc etc not found....No
classes were specified on the command line"

I've checked and they are there - I can see them and my eyes work perfectly,

I'm not sure what's going on here - could be my inexperience or I've
missed something mega obvious!

Anyway I would like to get it resolved asap as once it is everything
should work just nicely,

Please let me know where I've went wrong or what I need to do to
resolve the issue,

Cheers,

Dave
