Hi Orion: I saw your recent post, but I am answering your earlier message since that includes the error message you got with Fedora Core 6. My apologies for taking so long to respond. Both plplotjavacJNI.java and PLGraphicsIN.java are files that are generated by swig. I just checked, and plplotjavacJNI.java generated on my Ubuntu Dapper system with swig-1.3.27 has no type PLGraphicsIn for any of the arguments. For example, in replacement for the above line it uses the following: public final static native void PLGraphicsIn_type_set(long jarg1, int jarg2); so there is no generated circular dependency with the Ubuntu Dapper version of swig. So my guess is you have run into a problem with the version of swig that Fedora has adopted. Just in case Fedora have made some bad patches to the latest swig (1.3.31) or are using a bad earlier version, could you try to replicate the problem with vanilla swig downloaded directly from the swig site? If you get the same error with latest vanilla swig, let me know, and I will try and reproduce it here, see if we have to change our swig configuration for that version, etc. (IIRC, once or possibly twice before, the swig 1.3.x series introduced an incompatible change that required changing our swig configuration, but this hasn't happened for a long time.) If you cannot reproduce the issue with the latest vanilla swig, then agitate with fedora to use that version rather than the one they have adopted. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
