Placing the tool class file

Tool manager seeks tool classes in:

     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/exporters
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/extractors
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/importers
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/layers
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/subjects
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/selections
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/associations
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/generators
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/navigate

     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/subjects
     com/gripstudios/applications/wandora/admin/tools/topicnames
     com/gripstudios/applications/fng/tools

Path list is in Wandora options file. You have to place your tool class into one of these package directories or you have to add add new path element to the options file. If your tool class package is org.myproject.tools add element

   <path15>org/myprojects/tools</path15>

to options. Here we assume that options already contains 14 path settings.
