Title: Multibit development! Help Getting Started!
Post by: Ernanirst on April 21, 2014, 02:11:33 PM
Hey guys!!! I'm learning java in college and I decided to try to make some changes on multibit client UI. Well I downloaded the code from multibit website and put everything in a "src" directory on a Netbeans project. However, I notied, that some libraries are missing, for example:

import org.codehaus.jackson.map.ObjectMapper;
import org.codehaus.jackson.type.TypeReference;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.BufferedBlockCipher;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.CipherParameters;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.PBEParametersGenerator;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.engines.AESEngine;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.generators.PKCS5S2ParametersGenerator;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.modes.CBCBlockCipher;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.paddings.BlockCipherPadding;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.paddings.ISO10126d2Padding;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.paddings.PaddedBufferedBlockCipher;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.params.KeyParameter;
import org.spongycastle.crypto.params.ParametersWithIV;
import org.spongycastle.util.encoders.Base64;
import org.spongycastle.util.encoders.Hex;

Have I downloaded from the wrong place or  these libraries aren't distribute with multibit code? Should I try to find these libraries online?

Thanks in advance.

I think I've already answered your query on github but for the benefit of others . . .

The MultiBit build uses a tool called Maven which takes care of all the dependencies.
Most IDE's have a import project or similar you can use.
A good hint is: If there is a file called pom.xml in the top level directory then it's a Maven project.
