Building Eclipse Project with External JAR

My builds script is as follows:

<project default="main">
    <target name="main" depends="clear,compile,jar">
    </target>

    <target name="clear">
        <delete includeemptydirs="true">
            <fileset dir="../bin" includes="**/*" />
        </delete>
    </target>

    <target name="compile">
        <javac srcdir="../src" destdir="../bin" />
    </target>

    <target name="jar">
        <jar destfile="../jms.jar">
            <fileset dir="../bin">
                <include name="**/*.class" />
            </fileset>
            <zipgroupfileset dir="C:/Users/Jason/Project/apache-activemq-5.9" includes="activemq-5.9.jar" />
            <manifest>
                <section name="Information">
                    <attribute name="Version" value="1.1-02" />
                </section>
            </manifest>
        </jar>
    </target>
</project>

I'm still getting errors about not being able to compile my classes due to the JAR missing. Did I add it incorrectly?

C:\Users\Jason\Project\Workspace\ActiveMQ\src has all of the source files C:\Users\Jason\Project\apache-activemq-5.9 is the destination for the JAR file

Here are my errors:

You should add a classpath to the javac target, e.g.

<javac srcdir="../src" destdir="../bin" classpath="your-jar-file"/>

See the Javac Task documentation for further options to add a classpath.
