We use the following approach: 1. Unzip Mason to a convenient location 2. In Eclipse, create a Project for Mason, maybe "MasonTools" 3. In the Mason folder series, copy folders "sim" and "ec" 4. Paste them into the "MasonTools" Project 5. Right click on a project you want to use with Mason 6. Click on "Java Build Path", then "Projects", then select "MasonTools" and close the panel This allows you to control access to Mason easily. It also allows you to see the Mason source code. You can even copy and paste into the Project the "sean" and/or "docs" if you want to see the html documentation on your viewer (though I usually use a shortcut icon to the documentation index). You will get error warnings unless you have properly installed JMF and Java3D. Let me know if you have any problems. John John W.
