Ant question

I'm trying to use Ant to create a jar file. The folder that contains the
class files also contains the source files. I want to use the fileset
tag to only select the class files. It doesn't seem to be working. Can
anybody see what I'm doing wrong or offer another solution to filter out
what I don't want.

<target name="dist" depends="compile"
         description="generate the distribution" >

        <!-- Put everything in ${build} into the MyProject.jar file -->
          <jar jarfile="${dist}/MyProject.jar" basedir="${build}">
                  <fileset dir="${build}">
                           <include name="*.class"/>
                </fileset>
          </jar>
</target>
