How to "stringify" path ref to call command-line app?

I have to call a command-line app in my build script, one which takes a
classpath argument.  I can easily build a "path" with an "id", but is it
possible to then "stringify" that path into a string I can use on a
command line?

The command-line app I'm calling is the "weblogic.jspc" class from
WebLogic 6.1.  I don't believe the stock "jspc" task can do this.
