Hi there,

I'm trying to get Java3D to run on my Mac OS X Snow Leopard and Java 1.6

I have implemented the latest Java 3D and JOGL/Gluegen libaries exactly as specified in the respective wikis and tutorials. But, as soon as I run my project, I get an exception telling me that the javax/media/opengl/GLCapabilitiesChooser class could not be found.

All jars are in the classpath:

-classpath "/.../:
    /.../lib/gdv-api-1.2.jar:
    /.../lib/j3dcore.jar:
    /.../lib/j3dutils.jar:
    /.../lib/vecmath.jar:
    /.../lib/gluegen-rt.jar:
    /.../lib/jogl-all-natives-macosx-universal.jar:
    /.../lib/gluegen-rt-natives-macosx-universal.jar:
    /.../lib/jogl.all.jar:
    /Applications/IntelliJ IDEA 11 CE.app/lib/idea_rt.jar"

What's going wrong here?
