There are good reasons. Steffen recently started as a HiWi and he will be improving the Isar proof reconstruction code. That code is tightly interconnected with the rest of Sledgehammer, so this is definitely not one of those self-contained student projects that can be done in user space against some stable version of Isabelle.

Depending on your ambitions you can also try to get a feeling from where the slight instabilities of external ATPs are coming from on Windows/Cygwin. This affects both local provers like E (with its thick shell scripts around the C core) and SPASS, and remote ones via perl.


When I helped him set up the repository version last week, the first thing we did was to "cannibalize" the official components.

Anyway, if you haven't seen the error before, I guess we'll have to investigate this more closely on Steffen's machine and find out what went wrong (and let you know).

I've installed SUN JDK 1.6u32 (64 Bit) and Scala 2.9.2 final, the ISABELLE_JDK_HOME and SCALA_HOME environment variables are set accordingly.

My .isabelle/etc/settings file looks like this:

You should also try the jdk-6u31_x86-cygwin component from Isabelle2012. There is a tiny chance that the independently installed JDK 1.6u32 causes the problem. These things are often just a matter of funny registry entries etc.

Via isabelle getenv you should check ISABELLE_JDK_HOME, JAVA_HOME, SCALA_HOME and ensure that they all point to the Isabelle2012/contrib versions.
