@jameslamb It looks like you are trying to build with Java 10. You need to
be running Java 8 to build the project.
You might be interested in the instructions
[here](https://github.com/apache/metron/tree/master/metron-deployment/development/centos6#getting-started).
Also, sending the output of running
`metron-deployment/scripts/platform-info.sh` is also helpful to ensure that you
have all the dependencies setup to build Metron correctly.
Feel free to reach out on the dev mailing list for help in getting your
build environment setup. It might make sense to carry the conversation forward
there, at least until you can build master and deploy the dev environment.
Once you get past that hurdle we could restart the conversation here focusing
on your specific contribution.
Thanks for contributing!
