Hi joni. The development branch build of Jalview that you are looking for is in my last email. The link on the website points to a different build at the moment.
Please be aware that the Jalview client for jaba2 is still in development! User interface integration is by no means complete. Jim. J. B.

I had been working with JABAWS1. I was able to get my JABAWS2 server working, but can't seem to access all the web services via Jalview. I've tried with both Jalview 2.7 and my downloaded latest dev version of Jalview. Do I need to include a new client jar for JABAWS2 when I build Jalview? I tried building Jalview after replacing lib/min_jaba_client.jar with lib/min_jaba_client2.jar build get the following error from ant: [javac] C:\Documents and Settings\jfazo\My Documents\compgen_workspace\JalviewDev\src\jalview\ws\jws2\JabaWsServerQuery.java:85: incompatible types [javac] found : compbio.data.msa.JABAService [javac] required: compbio.data.msa.MsaWS [javac] service = Jws2Client.connect(jwsservers, srv); [javac] Also - I when I run the development version of Jalview from your website ( http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/~ws-dev1/jalview/latest/webstart/jalview.jnlp), I don't see the new web services. This Jalview seems to be connecting to http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/jabaws/ which is JABAWS1. Is there a version of Jalview available that works with JABAWS2? It would be nice for me to see what the new services do and how the UI works. Thanks in advance for you help! Joni I am able to get Jalview to connect to my JABAWS2 server, but only On Wed, Nov 16, 2011 at 9:50 AM, Peter Troshin <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi Joni, > > I am pleased to know that you have succeeded in creating a web service in > JABAWS framework! > I think that what Jim said makes a lot of sense.
