  +<h3>Built in Properties</h3>
  +<p>Ant provides access to all system properties as if they had been
  +defined using a property task, for example ${os.name} expands to the
  +name of the operating system.</p>
  +<p>In addition Ant knows some built in properties:</p>
  +<ul>
  +  <li>basedir - the absolute path of the project's basedir (as set
  +    with the basedir attribute of &lt;project&gt;.</li>
  +  <li>ant.file - the absolute path of the build file.</li>
  +  <li>ant.java.version - the JVM version Ant detected. Currently it
