Hello, I'm trying to write a genetic program for robocode. I want the 
battles to be automated, so that I can run the program at night. However, I 
can't seem to work out how to do it. I've Ctrl-C the source code from 
http://robocode.sourceforge.net/docs/robocode/robocode/control/package-summary.html (I 
believe this is for robocode 1.9.2.0) and I'm definitely using 1.9.2.4 . It 
compiles, but I get a runtime error.

I enter java BattleRunner on the command line (I use Windows 10)
I've tried java -jar robocode.jar BattleRunner and that doesn't change 
anything.
and get this Error: A JNI error has occurred, please check your 
installation and try again
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:

My robocode is installed @ C:\robocode. BattleRunner is stored @ 
C:\robocode\libs.

I can robocode from the command line, but once that's open I can't use the 
command prompt.

I'm very sorry, if this has already been answered, many thanks for your 
time.
