[opencms-dev] Compiling OpenCMS Source Code

This page describe the old "Eclipse's way" to compile OpenCms. I'm not an
Eclipse user, and never had it compiled with Eclipse, but from a quick
read, I understand that following this instructions you'll get OpenCms
compiled with Ant against the checked-in libraries. The build.xml used for
this compilation is deprecated and one year old, so don't expect to have
anything v9 / v9.5 consistently built.

Unfortunately, I cannot help you. I'm not that familiarized with the code,
but I guess if Eclipse builds successfully, then the errors that you
mention are Eclipse unresolved dependencies and not real errors. (Honestly,
they look like APIs versions mismatch, so I would estress using gradle
instead of ant to build the project.)
