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:

import List;

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

import Lis;
