Re: [NAnt-users] FW: readregistry issue
Resurrecting that old thread - I'm having the opposite problem. Since NAnt 0.92 now seems to be built with AnyCPU, it runs as 64 bit process on my machine. Unfortunately, I can't read certain keys that seem to exist only in the Wow6432Node - specifically, this one: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v5.0\ReferenceAssemblies This means I can't build silverlight 5.0 in my environment. I've modified NAnt.exe with corflags to run as 32bit, which fixes my immediate problem (I think). However, I'd like to know if there is a better way to do this.
