First of all thank you to Owen, James and Ernest Friedman-Hill. JESS complied with out a hiccup using Sun's jdk 1.4.0_03.
Whilst testing animal, the example JESS program, the data file was lost. The script was called using: jess> (batch examples/animal.clp The game functioned correctly. I then exited the script via the 'Try again? (yes or no)' prompt. When the script was reconsulted it returned only '1'. The data file could not be deleted or replaced, the file was locked by the use of a program (presumably jess). Word Pad would display only an empty file, where prior the data had been displayed. The above set of events were reproduced by me several times. I do not draw conclusions when asking for advice. However it would appear that the data was lost as a result of JESS not being exited properly. If this is so please tell me how to exit JESS. Do not treat this issue as a trivial manner, even though animal is a game. I am currently producing a prototype for my Higher School Certificate, Major Project. I am doing this through modification of the animal game. -- Programmers are tools for turning caffeine into code. ----------------------------------------- This email was sent using HTS webmail.
