Kodo 3.1.4 and Eclipse plugin

Question

I'm currently migrating from Kodo 2.5.3 to Kodo 3.1.4, and as I'm using
Eclipse have decided to give the Eclipse plugin a go. I've followed the
documentation (@15.6), and am now attempting the Eclipse Sample from the
documentation (@15.6.4). The documentation has seemed slightly incomplete,
but I assume that's just me using Eclipse 3.0 with the doumentation being
written for WSAD 4.
However, when I clean the project or run the enhancer I get the following
error:
<error>-The Enhancer failed. The message included was:
{0}
     org.apache.commons.lang.exception.NestableRuntimeException: Animal
<info>-Done.
This message doesn't seem to be giving me any info that would help me
track down the problem, so hopefully somebody has seen it beforehand in
these circumstances and can help me out?
Cheers,
Matt

Stephen, the stack trace is as below. Apparently the Animal class isn't
being found...? - How does the Kodo plugin look for / find it? - Eclipse
itself has no trouble compiling it. Do I need to somehow configure my
classpath separately for the Kodo plugin?

Matt,
you should see a stack trace in workspace/.metadata/.log. Can you send
us the error so that we can fix the reproting?
