Thanks Diane,
But did you notice that I had used a <fileset> tag inside
path to describe a set of files?
This is the example that ant documentation gives, on the basis
of which I was working on:
<documentation>
A path-like structure can include a reference to another path-like structure
via nested <path> elements:
<path id="base.path">
<pathelement path="${classpath}"/>
<fileset dir="lib">
<include name="**/*.jar"/>
</fileset>
<pathelement location="classes"/>
</path>
........................
<project ... >
<path id="project.class.path">
<pathelement location="lib/"/>
<pathelement path="${java.class.path}/"/>
<pathelement path="${additional.path}"/>
</path>
<target ... >
<rmic ...>
<classpath refid="project.class.path"/>
</rmic>
</target>
<target ... >
<javac ...>
<classpath refid="project.class.path"/>
</javac>
</target>
</project>
</documentation>
