Hi,

For some reason I am unable to compile the plugin itself. No matter what environment I use (tried JDK 1.7, 1.8; IntelliJ IDEA and NetBeans) it always fail because the jenkins.plugins.publish_over_ssh.Messages class cannot be found.

Tried

• looking for the Messages.java in the sources, not there (I checked the repo on Github to rule out a bad git clone)
• googling Messages.java online (searching for some of the methods the plugin tries to call) and came up with this – it looks like the actual file, but it might be outdated, so I did not try using it
• ensuring I have all the required dependencies – the plugin uses maven and both my IDEs (IDEA and NetBeans) properly identified it as such and before giving me access to the source code they downloaded all the required libraries upfront (took nearly 30 minutes)

Will try

• (WORKAROUND only) downloading the latest officially compiled plugin as .jar file, decompressing it, looking for the Messages.class file and luckily using it as an external library

I wonder – Is it possible the maintainer of this plugin simply forgot to git add the Messages.java file?

Thanks
