Dmitrii, I was hoping to get together a little video tutorial that shows how to set-up Eclipse to create an OpenJUMP plug-in. But I haven't had time to finish it.
What you need to do is configure the build path of your Eclipse project for the plug-in. Go to the "Libraries" tab and hit the "add external jars" button. Then browse to the two (2) OpenJUMP jars and the JTS jar. Let me know how that works, and I'll see if I can finish that tutorial video.
