ModuleImport

rascal-0.42.2

Synopsis​

A Rascal module could not be imported.

Description​

Rascal programs are split up in modules. An import declaration is used to include one module in another. This error indicates that a module import failed. This can be caused by

  • A misspelled name in the import statement.
  • Starting a Rascal console from the wrong directory.

Remedies:

  • Correct the mispelled name.
  • At the command line, change directory to where the toplevel module of your program is located and then execute the Rascal Shell.

Examples​

Here is a correct import of the library module List:

rascal>import List;
ok

Here is the effect of a misspelled module name (assuming that you do not have a module Lis):

rascal>import Lis;
[ERROR] Could not import module Lis: can not find in search path
