Field Detail

classPath

protected java.lang.String classPath

This can be two things:

• a class path, eg "agents.anac.y2010.AgentFSEGA.AgentFSEGA". In this case, the agent must be on the class path to load.
• a full path, eg "/Volumes/documents/NegoWorkspace3/NegotiatorGUI/src/agents/anac/y2010/AgentFSEGA/AgentFSEGA.java" . In this case, we can figure out the class path ourselves and load it.
