Subj : Problem with 'defineClass'.
To   : netscape.public.mozilla.jseng
From : Christopher M. Balz

In fact, the 'jsdoc.js' line ('defineClass("File");')
references a non-J2SE 'File' object!  I thought that
it was trying to reference the regular J2SE
'java.io.File' class, which is most definitely in my
class path.  

The 'File' '.java' file for the class that the line in
question is referencing in fact lives in the Rhino
'examples' directory right along with 'jsdoc.js'!  It
just needs to be compiled.
