    Possibly you are making it too complicated. :-) Eclipse compiles
    the Java files. The Ant script creates the application package (aka
    bundle). The Ant script does not have a compilation step. If you
    are using the Ant Builder (rather than the Incremental Builder), then
    you can just copy the .woa directory to the remote server. I never
    build on the machine that I am deploying on (no need to do this). If
    you are using the Incremental Builder, then you need to run the ant
    build target to create the correct .woa to move to the server.

    If you want to do a full build from the command line, you will need
    to add a compilation target like this:

            <target name="compile" depends="setProps">
                    <wocompile destdir="bin"
                                            debug="${wocompile.debug.flag}"
                                            optimize="${wocompile.optimize.flag}"
                                            deprecation="on">
                            <src refid="${project.source.path}"/>
                            <frameworks root="${wo.wosystemroot}">
                                    <patternset>
                                            <includesfile name="woproject/ant.frameworks.wo.wosystemroot"/>
                                    </patternset>
                            </frameworks>
                            <frameworks root="${wo.wolocalroot}">
                                    <patternset>
                                            <includesfile name="woproject/ant.frameworks.wo.wolocalroot"/>
                                    </patternset>
                            </frameworks>
                            <classpath refid="additional.jars" />
                    </wocompile>
            </target>
