  property for a description of this behaviour (This is in the 1.4 docs).
  
  I have never seen the need to include ${java.class.path}. In fact, I run with 
! an empty classpath.

! It seems that you are setting up your CLASSPATH externally (e.g. in the shell
! which invokes Ant.
! 
! In my case it is different. All libraries which are required to compile the 
! project are stored in the directory `lib'. The libraries in this directory won't 
! be added to the CLASSPATH in the shell that invokes Ant. I'm using java.class.path 
! in the pathelement just for convenience if any one likes to setup his own 
! CLASSPATH, e.g. for testing if a newer version of a library in the lib directory
! can be  used with the project.
! 
! Unfortunately the classpath I defined is not used by default since Ant's tasks
! can only use the classpath which has been defined by the time Ant has been
! invoked. As you can see from the above description there is no way to set the
! classpath in the shell. I know that a shell script can do this, but I don't like
! this because everything that can be done easily in the build.xml file should be 
! there. In my opinion this avoids mixing of responsibilities.
