    I've just installed Eclipse 3.0 M5 with WOLips 1.07.37. I've also
    installed the org.eclipse.ant.core_3.0 fix. I create a new project,
    try to build and receive the following error:

    BUILD FAILED:
    file:/Users/dym7/eclipse/workspace/MyProject/build.xml:43: Could not
    create task or type 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.

    What am I missing?

    Thanks,
