Yes, this is one way to go, but assumes that you have all the descriptor jar files in your class path. This will be true if you're using the big jar file, but not neessarily true if you're using the modular jar files. Another reason for introspection rather than hardcoding th listis that doesn't require someone to make sure that the hard coded list is updated when new descriptors are added or old ones removed. This approach also lets users define their own desriptor classes in separate jar files. Have you tried using the constructor that lets you specify a list of jar file names - so thatyou don't have to depend on the classpath? If you can collect the jar file names, this constructor should address your problem -- Rajarshi Guha NIH Chemical Genomics Center ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Verizon Developer Community Take advantage of Verizon's best-in-class app development support A streamlined, 14 day to market process makes app distribution fast and easy Join now and get one step closer to millions of Verizon customers http://p.sf.net/sfu/verizon-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Cdk-user mailing list Cdk-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/cdk-user
