    That sounds like you have included this project as a WO Library, but
    it is not a WO Library.

    What I do is to have a build.xml in each project that simply
    references the common build file(s):

    <project name="FooApp" default="build" basedir=".">

         <import file="../Ant/common.xml"/>

    </project>

    Three lines is longer than none, but it makes building very easy.
