[neuroConstruct] Does neuroConstruct support Java compiler 1.7?

[Natasha Wilson]

Hello Padraig:

Thank you for your response.  Sorry for the late response.

The specific issues are:

- When I first installed neuroConstruct a few months ago, it worked fine,
especially the Visualization tab.

- I tried to use neuroConstruct the other day after not using it for a few
months and I could not visualize any neuron structure I set up.  When I
looked at the error messages, it appeared there was something wrong with
its communication with Java.  The first error message said something about
there being no GUI.

- I installed a newer version of neuroConstruct (1.5.3; I was previously
using 1.5.2) and had the same issues.

-I updated my Java compiler from 1.6 to 1.7 and now neuroConstruct will not
even load.

If you can help me with this issue, I would appreciate it.  Also, I am
using Ubuntu as my OS.

Thanks!

Natasha
