It’s a little hard to tell what’s going on, but I *think* you are attempting to build your Tester.java class as part of the ABCL build, perhaps using a modified version of the file:build.xml to drive, but it is hard to tell without a copy of your source. If you could put up such a copy online, it would be helpful to diagnose things as I would have a reproducible recipe locally.
Developers usually build their application not by modifying the contents of `abcl.jar`, but an additional archive. It is fairly trivial to rebould a copy of `abcl-contrib` that contains a customized contribution.
Since your Tester.java is purely Java side, you might be able to get away with a simple invocation of `java` which includes `abcl.jar` in its class path like:
``` java -cp SOMEWHERE/abcl.jar:. Tester ```
I suspect you are trying to accomplish all of this via Netbeans projects. While possible, one has to understand a fair amount of the details, so being able to reproduce from the command line for a given online copy of the source would be ideal to get something working.
