I try to run ant from Eclipse and learn it step by step from the book

line but encounter below messages within Eclipse. May anyone give me a hint
what's wrong with the setting in the Eclipse? Thanks.

Always stated which Ant you are using and which Eclipse build you are using.
For Ant 1.5.4 and older and Eclipse M5 and older you need to remove the
Xerces JARs from the Ant runtime classpath...AND if you are pointing to an
Ant install to use as your Ant home you will need to physically remove the
xerces JARs from co-locating with the Ant JARS (this is all described in the
Eclipse README).

For Ant 1.6.0 you only need to remove the Xerces JARs with Eclipse M5 and
older.
With newer Eclipse builds you can leave the Xerces JARs on the Ant runtime
classpath.

Thanks, Darin. The problem is solved.
The Eclipse build I use is Eclipse 2.1.2 with the Ant 1.5.3.
