There is no difference in type.

The classpath tag is normally a sub-element in of a task, and it
corresponds (in java) to an Path type.


The task may use different element names of the Path type for
different uses. For example <javac>
has <classpath>, <src>, <sourcepath>, <bootclasspath> and <extdirs>
all of Path type.

<path> is an ant type - one can set a reference to a path and use
this reference with any of the elements of the Path type.
