Re: Variables available to Beanshell scripts within Ant

If anyone is interested, the answer is spelled out plain as day here:

http://ant.apache.org/manual/OptionalTasks/script.html

Specifically:

"All items (tasks, targets, etc) of the running project are accessible 
from the script, using either their name or id attributes (as long as 
their names are considered valid Java identifiers, that is). This is 
controlled by the "setbeans" attribute of the task. The name "project" is 
a pre-defined reference to the Project, which can be used instead of the 
project name. The name "self" is a pre-defined reference to the actual 
<script>-Task instance.
>From these objects you have access to the Ant Java API, see the JavaDoc 
(especially for Project and Script) for more information."

Helps if one reads more carefully :)
