JAVA_HOME is setting when you select an ANT Step, the shell script will use the ANT_HOME setted on the server as environment variable. A solution is write the ANT_HOME value during an ANT task on a file on the workspace.

<echo message="${ant.home}" file="anthome.txt" />

The shell script read this file and use it for launch ant targets.

FOR /F %i IN (anthome.txt) DO SET ANT_HOME=%i

In any case perhaps is easier to have a ant script for launch other ant targets that your approach.
