include path in 

Hello all,

I am interested in passing in a <path> reference to the <classpath> tags
of my <java> call. How can this be done? 

	<!-- Apache Beehive jars-->
	<path id="apache.beehive.classpath">
		<fileset dir="${apache-beehive.lib.netui.dir}">
			<include name="**/*.jar"/>
		</fileset>
		<fileset dir="${apache-beehive.lib.controls.dir}">
			<include name="*.jar"/>
		</fileset>
	</path>

	<echo>CP:${toString:apache.beehive.classpath}</echo>

CP: outputs the correct thing, however, when I then try to use that like

       <classpath>
		<pathelement path="${apache.beehive.classpath}" />
       </classpath>

I get this kind of error message in my log:

dropping /tools/build/antstuff/apache.beehive.classpath from path as it
doesn't exist

what am I doing wrong?

You must use 

<classpath>
  <path refid="apache.beehive.classpath"/>
</classpath>

or in your case, the shortcut

<classpath refid="apache.beehive.classpath" />
