Description Luc Maisonobe 2000-12-11 09:48:51 UTC 
While trying to compile 3.1 beta 24 from sources I encountered the following
errors. It seems some parts are missing either from the source or the external
binaries (something called gj ?).

Comment 1 Svata Dedic 2000-12-11 09:58:59 UTC 
The gj.* package is actually the implementation of the closed-source Internal
Compiler (close source because of licencing/legal issues and used as a library
throughout the NetBeans).
You need to download this binary as well as some others (XML support etc);
please see
	http://nbbuild.netbeans.org/ant-quick.html
for complete build process HOWTO - there's link to the downloads.

Resolved for 3.3.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
Comment 3 Quality Engineering 2003-07-01 13:17:53 UTC 
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
