It's because I didn't see the error with build.xml, but with Eclipse built-in build. I rarely use build.xml (only to create the jars, deal with i18n, or create the docs for the website), because only Eclipse build is required to run Jmol from Eclipse. It's also a lot faster than build.xml. You should try forgetting build.xml ;) Since you are using Eclipse, you should see the problem (little icons -red cross, warning- on the project and files) Eclipse compiles (automatically or manually depending on how you configure it) every Java file, and maintains the dependencies, so everything that should be compiled is compiled. And now, a few tips on Eclipse and dealing with errors and warnings :) There's a view called "Problems" (should be displayed by default in the Java perspective) that lists all the errors and warnings. When modifying Jmol source, try to have no error and no warning (except the few ones already existing), it's a lot better to have a project free of errors and warnings. One of the reasons I like Eclipse is that it generates a lot of warnings and errors, and that it automatically provides several solutions for most of the problems: double-click on the problem to open the source file at the correct line, and left click on the icon in the left margin of the source file to get a popup menu with possibles solutions of the problem.
