Re: [Swarm-Support] Error in DefObj.m, unable to find Java selector

[Paul E Johnson]

Dear Otto:

I gather you do not understand that Swarm-2.1.1 is an old package and it 
is not really intended to work with Win-XP.  I don't know how well in 
general the community is supporting windows, but I'm pretty sure the 
general advice would be to eliminate swarm-2.1.1 and install the Cygwin, 
then Swarm-2.2 prerelease.  The caution is that cygwin's newest release 
will install an incompatibly tcltk, and you can fix that by installing 
the older tcltk I just announced in this mailing list.

I don't know where you can find the newer dlls for Swarm-2.1.1. I saw 
you ask about that earlier.
