Thanks for the note, and for initiating the use of the issue tracker! There is
a wiki page describing how to configure Ecliipse to run Simbrain, which
addresses the first problem you ran in to, and then overcame (adding jars to
the build path in Eclipse). The exception you got is because the persistence
scheme is still changing, and so the stored simulation files won't work with
the current code. I'm holding off checking in updated files until persistence
has stabilized. Actually I'm not even sure the simulation files should be in
the repository to begin with (if you or anyone else knows of a "best practices"
document on this I'd be interested). For now I can either send you some
working workspace files offline, or update the files in the repository, with
the understanding that I may have to do so again, possibly several times,
before the final release of Simbrain 3. Any suggestions?

Hi Jeff Yoshimi,
thanks for the quick reply ... first I want to say that this neural network
simulator looks really good ... I am interested in an easy to use simulator
with a 2D world and was just on the way to code my own one based on the MARS
framework in flash (www.marsframework.com).
Ah, I understand, the xml files changed, ok, this is not a big problem. I
thought that there is a missing library or so. I guess it's then enough to
mention it somewhere in the description, that the xml files may not be
compatible at the moment. (yes, or maybe remove them completely).
Beside of loading those incompatible files everything else is working fine.
I studied computer science and psychology and I am interested in modelling an
autonomous agent with a neural network learning through satisfaction of
different needs (energy, water, certainty). I guess this framework should be
very appropriate for this.
My main inspiration comes from a german psychologist Prof.Dietrich Dörner from
the university of Bamberg, he wrote a book "Bauplan für eine Seele" (blueprint
of a soul), very interesting, but unfortunately only in german. But I heard
that there is an author who wrote a book based on that book called "PRINCIPLES
OF SYNTHETIC INTELLIGENCE".
I guess I will go a bit into the code the coming days to get familiar with it.
Thanks and nice to meet you,
Markus Stoehr

Hi Markus,
Glad you like it. I did not know about Dörner and will try to have a look.
If you get in to the code and have questions, email me and I'll try to provide
an answer and / or improve relevant docs.
How about this for a solution to the problem you raised: I'll delete the files
from the simulation folder, and will put in a README that explains why those
folders are currently empty.

Hi Jeff,
that sounds very good, I will come back to you for questions,
Thanks a lot

Ok, I've removed all non-working files and added a README to explain, as part
of revision -r 2337. Thanks for raising the issue and keep in touch.
