    </p>
    <p>
      Introduced in ant1.6 <font color="red">Experimental</font>.
    </p>
    <h3>Parameters</h3>
    <table border="1" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
      <tr>
        <td valign="top"><b>Attribute</b></td>
        <td valign="top"><b>Description</b></td>
        <td align="center" valign="top"><b>Required</b></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td valign="top">name</td>
        <td valign="top">the name of the new definition</td>
        <td valign="top" align="center">Yes</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td valign="top">uri</td>
        <td valign="top">
          The uri that this definition should live in.
        </td>
        <td valign="top" align="center">No</td>
      </tr>
    </table>
    <h3>Parameters specified as nested elements</h3>
    <h4>another type with attributes or elements set</h4>
    <p>The &lt;presetdef&gt; task takes one nested element as a parameter.
      This nested element can be any other type or task. The attributes
      and elements that need to be preset are placed here.
    </p>

    <h3>Examples</h3>
    <p>
      The following fragment defines a javac task with the debug and deprecation
      attributes set. It also has a src element to source files from a generated
      directory.
    </p>
    <blockquote>
      <pre>
&lt;presetdef name="my.javac"&gt;
   &lt;javac debug="${debug}" deprecation="${deprecation}"&gt;
      &lt;src path="${gen.dir}"/&gt;
   &lt;/javac&gt;
&lt;/presetdef&gt;
      </pre>
    </blockquote>
    <p>
      This can be used as a normal javac task - example:
    </p>
    <blockquote>
      <pre>
&lt;my.javac src="${src.dir}" destdir="${classes.dir}"/&gt;
      </pre>
    </blockquote>
