I’m trying to create an mxj object to run and query Netlogo Models
in max.

Using the Netlogo Example code ((http://ccl.northwestern.edu/netlogo/docs/) I’m trying to open Netlogo from max and run the commands as a simple test. Unfortunately, I’m having problems compiling (see below). I’ve included all the relevant jar files from max and Netlogo (as instructed on the website) in the classpath and am building directly to the Cycling ’74/java/classes directory.

I’m new to java so this is proving quite difficult.
Any advice to help me started would be much appreciated.

[System: OSX 10.6.8 / Max 5.1.8 / Netlogo 4.1.3 / Java 1.6]

Code:
——

import com.cycling74.max.*;
import org.nlogo.app.App;

public class Example1 extends MaxObject {

public static void main(String[] argv) {
App.main(argv);
try {
java.awt.EventQueue.invokeAndWait
( new Runnable()
{ public void run() {
try {
App.app.open
(“models/Sample Models/Earth Science/”
+ “Fire.nlogo”);
}
catch( java.io.IOException ex ) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
} } );
App.app.command(“set density 62″);
App.app.command(“random-seed 0″);
App.app.command(“setup”);
App.app.command(“repeat 50 [ go ]“);
System.out.println
(App.app.report(“burned-trees”));
}
catch(Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
}
