Hi - biojavax contains extensions to the basic biojava API's. (A bit like java and javax). biojavax does require biojava because it extends it and biojava 1.5 when released will be made up of both of them. On the whole we recommend people use the biojavax API where it deprecates the biojava API but both are retained for backwards compatibility. Please note though that there are large parts of biojava that are not deprecated by biojavax and which are still useful and needed.
Hope this helps, - Mark On 5/17/07, Jeff Szielenski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Also, > > BioJava 2 is not BioJavax. I noticed biojava-1.5-beta2 contains both > biojava and biojavax.
