[mary-dev] adding new NLPs to the system

[fxavier at ircam.fr]

Dear all,

I've completed the developpement of my personnal NLP components for
french, now it is time to add them to the Mary system. Here is what I did:

- I copied/pasted all my java classes into the directory
$MARY_BASE/java/marytts/language/fr

- I created the fr.config file like this:

- and started the maryserver.


Unfortunately I got this exception:

MARY server 4.3.0 starting as a HTTP server...Exception in thread "main"
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: marytts.language.fr.PhonemiserFR

stating that my class PhonemiserFR is not found. What is my mistake? Did I
miss something?


My config:
- Ubuntu 11.04
- Mary 4.3.0
- JDK jdk1.6.0_24


Best regards,
