[wx4j] Problem installing wx4i with blackdown java and ant on debian sarge

[Peter <pe...@co...>]

Hello,

Lately i've been wanting to create a simple text editor applet in Java 
(because i dont like inserting [B], [I], ect into an html <textarea>), 
and rather than to learn Swing, i figured id'e stick to something im 
already used to, like wx.

However, i cannot seem to get wx4j installed as ant seems to give me the 
following errors:

    [javac] 
/home/peter/software/wx4j-0.2.0/build/wx4j/java/org/wxwindows/wxAppNative.java:11: 
'class' or 'interface' expected
    [javac] public abstract wxAppNative extends wxEvtHandler {
    [javac]                 ^
    [javac] 2 errors

So i tryed changing "abstract" to "abstract class" in the source code 
and got:

# --------------------------------
    [javac] 
/home/peter/software/wx4j-0.2.0/build/wx4j/java/org/wxwindows/Java2WxInputStreamAdapter.java:194:

    [javac] symbol  : variable wxFromStart
    [javac] location: class org.wxwindows.wx
    [javac]             if (seekMode == wx.wxFromStart)
    [javac]                               ^
    [javac]

    [javac]             else if (seekMode == wx.wxFromCurrent)
    [javac]                                    ^
    [javac]

    [javac] location: class org.wxwindows.wxListCtrlAutoWidth
    [javac]                 int scrollWidth = 
wxSystemSettings.GetMetric(wxSYS_VSCROLL_X);
    [javac]                                                              ^
    [javac] 3 errors
# -----------------------------

I have also tryed using the --withjikes option, but got almost identical 
errors.

Any help or insite on this will be greatly apreciated.

Thanks,
Peter
