Hi,

I have set up a gp problem in a very similar way to the examples in the
package.  The individual pieces of code compile without errors.  When I try
to run the code I get the following error:

Exception in thread "main" ec.util.ParamClassLoadException:

        at ec.Evolve.main(Evolve.java:424)

==============================================

The folder ('automation') containing the problem and the functions is
stored in ec\app\.  X is a terminal function located in
ec\app\automation\func.  I believe that the parameter class X is not being
found, but am not sure why.

Any help on the matter would be great.

Thanks a lot,
anjali
