 * script uses.</p>
 *
 * <p>You can obtain a {@code ScriptHandler} instance using {@link org.gradle.api.Project#getBuildscript()} or {@link
 * org.gradle.api.Script#getBuildscript()}.</p>
 *
 * <p>To declare the script classpath, you use the {@link org.gradle.api.artifacts.dsl.DependencyHandler} provided by
 * {@link #getDependencies()} to attach dependencies to the {@value #CLASSPATH_CONFIGURATION} configuration. These
 * dependencies are resolved just prior to script compilation, and assembled into the classpath for the script.</p>
 *
 * <p>For most external dependencies you will also need to declare one or more repositories where the dependencies can
 * be found, using the {@link org.gradle.api.artifacts.dsl.RepositoryHandler} provided by {@link
 * #getRepositories()}.</p>
