Re: [Swarm-Modelling] Problem in running the swarm tutorial.

[Diego Corredor]

Dear Kavita,

It seems to me that you haven't installed swarm in your PC, or you are
not invoking it correctly (javacswarm), and that is why java is not
finding the javaswarm library in the path.

What you should do to solve the problem (if you have not installed the
javaswarm yet) is to download the javaswarm from the following link:

http://ftp.swarm.org/pub/swarm/binaries/w32/Swarm-2.2-java.zip

This zip file contains everything you need to run swarm applications
in your PC. You don't need to download anything else.

If you want to program in javaswarm, I highly recommend to use the
Eclipse environment. To learn how to set up the javaswarm and how to
download Eclipse check the following guide by Steve Lytinen and Steve
Railsback:
