No, I did not define task(s) but after I added your example to the build.xml
file I got and error regarding classpath, where do I specify class path, and
what is it uesd for?

Hi JR,
you have to define the task(s).
<taskdef name="woapplication"
classname="org.objectstyle.woproject.ant.WOApplication">
<classpath refid="classpath"/>
</taskdef>

Hi,
I am trying to run ant with WOProject to build a woapplication from
the command line. The error indicates that ant cannot find task
woapplication or some class associated with woapplication. I added
woproject.jar and cayenne.jar to my ant batch script but no luck any ideas?
Below is the output from my build attempt:

of type: woapplication.
Ant could not find the task or a class this task relies upon.
This is common and has a number of causes; the usual
solutions are to read the manual pages then download and
install needed JAR files, or fix the build file:
- You have misspelt 'woapplication'.
Fix: check your spelling.
- The task needs an external JAR file to execute
and this is not found at the right place in the classpath.
Fix: check the documentation for dependencies.
Fix: declare the task.
- The task is an Ant optional task and optional.jar is absent
Fix: look for optional.jar in ANT_HOME/lib, download if needed
- The task was not built into optional.jar as dependent
libraries were not found at build time.
Fix: look in the JAR to verify, then rebuild with the needed
libraries, or download a release version from apache.org
- The build file was written for a later version of Ant
Fix: upgrade to at least the latest release version of Ant
- The task is not an Ant core or optional task
and needs to be declared using <taskdef>.
Remember that for JAR files to be visible to Ant tasks implemented
in ANT_HOME/lib, the files must be in the same directory or on the
classpath
Please neither file bug reports on this problem, nor email the
Ant mailing lists, until all of these causes have been explored,
as this is not an Ant bug.
