[josm-dev] new on JOSM (and eclipse), cannot build

[Theun]

Hello,

I'm considering to do some work on JOSM, and also to get a bit acquainted to
Java/eclipse and programming on a linux machine, haven't done that before. I
have experience on windows programming (Delphi) and programming for embedded
controllers using plain ansi-c which I do most of the time.

I tried to compile the current trunk of JOSM using:
* Ubuntu-Hardy Heron
* Eclipse
The description in the trac-wiki seemed short but if it would work its OK.
However I'm getting some errors (14 to be exact) and a lot of warnings, I
guess I'm missing some files or declarations or a part of the eclipse/java
installation.

Has anyone some advice, things to check.
Thanx in advance,
Theun,

The errors I'm seeing on Eclipse:
