The best way to do this is to use the <path /> construct. An example of this
in use can be seen in ants own build file IIRC.
Basically you do
<path id ="foo">
<fileset ... />
</path>
And in any task that needs a classpath like javac et al you do sometyhing
like
<javac .. >
<classpath refid="foo"/>
</javac>
Does that work for you ?
