Whatever we do needs to work with horn as well, correct?

I've seen people packing Ruby with their repo to make it runnable without prereqs. greetings Daniel On Sun, Dec 20, 2009 at 4:42 PM, Ken Egozi <[email protected]> wrote: require PS, that was my point. It's not default on most machines yet, especially not on the people who has the problems with Checkout-And-Build 2009/12/20 Krzysztof Koźmic <[email protected]> IIRC PSake itself does not require install. You're right though - it requires PowerShell to be installed, and there are quirks with permissions and script signing. Perhaps Bake would be better alternative, although IIRC it was pretty much abandoned. IF I had time thought, I'd be interested in getting it up to date with Boo development. It would be a perfect occasion also for me to play with the language, which I like more and more as I read Ayende's book.

The benefits being: * having one build technology, * sln/csproj (references and sources) are 'automatically' in sync with what's on the disk, * just open a sln and it compiles without running NAnt first(we create a little exe that creates/updates AssemblyInfo on the PreBuildEvent). SharpDevelop, being a pretty big project, is entirely being build by MSBuild so it should be possible for us also, especially now that the projects are split up. On Mono there's xbuild <http://www.mono-project.com/Microsoft.Build> , and from what I read here <http://ankitjain.org/blog/2009/10/02/xbuild-and-mono-2-6p1/> it's very much up to the task on Mono 2.6. I am currently investigating, but want to check if there's anything I am grossly overlooking i.e. what NAnt does and MSBuild can't.
