Description Peter Reilly 2006-06-12 15:02:00 UTC 
The following does not work:
<presetdef name="hello-there">
 <echo>Hello There</echo>
</presetdef>

<script language="beanshell">
  import org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.MacroInstance;
  import org.apache.tools.ant.BuildException;

  task = project.createTask("hello-there");  // error
</script>

This will throw a

 java.lang.ClassCastException
    at
org.apache.tools.ant.ComponentHelper.createNewTask(ComponentHelper.java:462)
