    Thanks, Sébastien for your help.

    I'm still having isses with the error -- maybe I haven't added the
    jar in the correct location:

    
    The error I get on build:

    Buildfile: /Users/joshua/development/eclipse/workspace/WOLipsTest/
    build.xml
    setProps:
    init.build:
    build.woapp:

    BUILD FAILED
    /Users/joshua/development/eclipse/workspace/WOLipsTest/build.xml:46:
    taskdef A class needed by class
    org.objectstyle.woproject.ant.WOApplication cannot be found: org/
    apache/tools/ant/Task

    Total time: 1 second

    
    I'll keep noodling around to try and fix this.

    Thanks,

    Joshua
