[jgrapht-developers] Setting up Developer Environment

[Edwin Ma <em...@co...>]

Hi,

I'm interested in contributing to this project and have just set up the
development environment. I'm currently operating on macOS Sierra and using
Maven 3 with Java 9. I just have a few questions regarding existing errors
and warnings after running the following commands:

mvn clean
mvn verify
mvn checkstyle:check -P checkstyle
mvn javadoc:aggregate

Specifically, after running 'mvn verify', I received warnings regarding the
use of deprecated API in input files, and that some input files use
unchecked or unsafe operations. After running 'mvn javadoc:aggregate', I
see some similar warning as well as errors regarding the lack of a module
descriptor. Are these expected and meant to be ignored? Each step does
successfully complete.

I'm looking to implement the planarity test with the appropriate
certificates based off of the implementations of Hopcroft-Tarjan planarity
testing algorithm in LEDA as suggested in
https://github.com/jgrapht/jgrapht/pull/416

Best,
Edwin
