[jdom-interest] Unable to build JDOM 1.0beta9-dev [2002]

[Matt Futterman]

I have been trying to build the latest source from CVS but get
the errors shown below.  It appears that for some reason a
statement in the code such as

import com.sun.java.collections.*;

fails to resolve, for instance, Iterator, so modifying the above
statement so that it reads

import com.sun.java.collections.Iterator;

is needed.  I have tried to hand code these changes but just
end up ultimately with more errors.

Does anyone have any suggestions?  (Or copies of jdom-jdk11.jar
and jdom.jar that they could give me?)

Thank you,
Matt
