And there lies the problem. The current working directory is the  
BlueJ project directory, which contains temporary files which are  
created by BlueJ.

This shows that your command tries to compile the temporary BlueJ  
file, and that fails because some required libraries are not included  
in your command's classpath.

This will always work from the command line, since the temporary file  
then does not exist.
