I think the original question noted two different classes along the lines of
com.someone.xxx.bo.BusinessObject and com.someone.xxx.BusinessObject These are different classes. ... I cannot find the original post and I can't be sure so sorry if this is a red herring. One of Eclipse's useful features is to allow you to pick a missing class to import (as a "quick fix"). I have sometimes made the mistake of picking the wrong class from the list offered. If I pick java.awt.List instead of java.util.List things go wrong downstream quickly and the mistake is pretty easy to find. If I pick a super or subclass of the one I should have chosen, the cause might not appear so quickly. The Primavera Integration API, for example, provides ample opportunity to make this kind of error - where a "family" of classes can live in different jars. Of the classes listed in the original post, which one should you be using? I would go back to my source and check whether the import is correct. As others have alluded to, the fact that it "works" in Eclipse doesn’t necessarily mean it's "correct".

I agree that Eclipse's handling of scopes is a common reason for code which works in Eclipse, but actually fails on the CLI. However, there are also significant differences in the compilers themselves, which I have encountered quite frequently. In particular, Eclipse tends to be laxer about complex generics expressions than javac is.
