In the "Definitive guide of ANT", they give an example like this :
<path id="classpath">
  <fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
    <include name="**/*.jar"/>
  </fileset>
</path>

they then can refere this "path" in the javac classpath !

In my Build.xml I have the following description : 
    <!-- The build path -->
    <path id="build.path" >     
        <fileset dir="${lib.dir}">
            <!-- <patternset refid="pattern.lib.files" /> -->
            <include name="*.jar" />
            <include name="*.zip" />
        </fileset>
    </path>

But refering to it in my build-target, like herebelow :
    <target name="build"
            description="Builds the java code">
        <javac verbose="${verbose.flag}"
               destdir="${build.dir}" 
               srcdir="${src.dir}"  >              
               <!-- <include name="**/*.java" /> -->
               <classpath refid="build.path" />
        </javac>            
    </target>       

I get a :
              build.path doesn't denote a path


Any idea ?
