NexML as core module? #34

Open daisieh opened 10 years ago

daisieh commented 10 years ago

Is NexML incorporated as part of Mesquite 3.0?

No it isn't. But when you run ant mesquite-installwith the environment variable MESQUITE_ROOT=/path/to/Mesquite_Folder inside https://github.com/nexml/nexml.java it appears to install more or less correctly in the mesquite class hierarchy: it shows up as a file import and export format. It does seem that character sequences are populated in a slightly different way in the new API (is that possible?) because Mesquite 3.0 now doesn't read all the character data elements (not those in elements, notably) from the NeXML example files.

Hi @rvosa, has anyone experimented with this lately? I have NeXML in alpha in TaxonWorks, a big push to get it active at this point was to get datasets into Mesquite.

Hi Matt,

installing the NeXML extension still works as advertised (I just checked), i.e. by defining a MESQUITE_ROOT env var that points to the Mesquite_Folder and issuing ant mesquite-install.

However, something has changed about how mesquite reads characters because the canonical example files, which used to work, now display empty character matrices.

Cheers,

Rutger
