I usually execute <mkdir> in this situation - an empty directory does not affect anything else and makes some commands happy.

I am constructing a classpath that includes a fileset. Sometimes, the base directory for that fileset does not exist. I would like Ant to simply accept this as an empty fileset and move on. Instead, Ant quits with an error, complaining that the directory is not found. How should
I resolve this problem?


In other words...

<path id="cp">
<fileset dir="lib" includes="**/*.jar"/>
<pathelement location="a.jar"/>
<pathelement location="b.jar"/>
<pathelement location="c.jar"/>
</path>
<javac
destdir="${classes}"


       <src path="${src}"/>
       <classpath>
               <path refid="cp"/>
       </classpath>
</javac>

...fails if the "lib" folder does not exist. I would rather have Ant
just keep on going. Any ideas?
