[ImageJ-devel] Jython error

[Brian Northan]

Hi Johannes

It seems the "problem" is jruby-complete-1.7.11.jar.  I think this was only
added recently.

If I delete this the jython scripts work again.  But I am guessing it is
actually jython-2.5.2.jar that has the obsolete version of jffi.

Should jython-2.5.2.jar be updated as to be compatible with
jruby-complete-1.7.11.jar??

Thanks

Brian
