Dear Mohamed,
I am not an ABCL user, nor am I more than semi-competent at programming
in Java, so I'm unlikely to be able to help here. What I'm telling you
is that your interpreter is reading things in the wrong package and
that's why your example is failing to work.
You could try doing something I.eval("(in-package :maxima)). Maybe that
will work. If not, you should probably ask someone on an ABCL list for
help.
Rupert
