Antlets are designed to be (optionally) downloaded and imported by the importantlet task sample code

Sample

 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project default="dist" basedir="." name="hello-world">
	<description>Helloworld template project.</description>
{{{    <typedef resource="org/apache/ant/antlet/antlib.xml"     /> 
    <importantlet name="init" href="http://ant.apache.org/antlets" /> 
    <target name="dist" > 
      <echo message="Build dir is defined in init as ${build.dir}"/> 
     </target> 

</project>
}}}

This will download and automatically import http://ant.apache.org/antlets/init/xbuild.xml Which looks like

 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<project  basedir="." name="init.antlet">
	<description>Standard Init.</description>
{{{   <property name="build.dir" value="${basedir}/build}" /> 
   <mkdir dir="${build.dir}"/> 

</project>
}}}
