bin files, its sub folders, class files are removed from the Ignore List.
JBE agent runs in the build machine. Build is successful. How to check-in the binary from the build machine..
Do we need to point the Load path (in build definition) to the same as eclipse workspace path. And launch Eclipse in the Build machine to check-in from 'Pending Changes' view.

Checking in binaries is basically a controversial topic and I am on the position you should not do that for many reasons.

I would rather suggest to store such results in a binary repository such as Artifactory.


If you still think it is a good idea to do that, you will have to use the SCM commandline to add this. A build workspace purely accepts and loads. Please note that the build user does not even have write access to workspaces used in personal builds, so your scripts would have to take that into account.

I agree with everything Ralph said.
If you do choose to do this, here's an article that shows examples of how to use the SCM CLI in a build:
