Here is part of my build file... classpath is working great for me.

...
<path id="project.classpath">
	<pathelement path="${classpath}"/><!-- system classpath... in my case it's
empty -->
	<fileset dir="${lib.home}">
		<include name="**/*.jar"/><!-- This are external jar files -->
	</fileset>
	<pathelement location="${src.home}"/> <!-- src.home points to the directory
under 				which all my java files are arranged in directories according to
			standard package naming -->
</path>

	<!-- this is the portion that compiles the sources -->
	<javac
		srcdir="${src.home}"
		destdir="${compile.to}\"
		debug="on"
		 >
		<classpath refid="project.classpath"/>
	</javac>
...

Hope this example helps. Otherwise I would suggest posting the appropiate
parts of your buils file and I'll take a look and see what is going on.
You should note that the path element is not under a target, but declared
before any target so that it can be reused in other parts. The javac part IS
declared inside a target.

Good Luck.

Ylan Segal.
