So I did this (sent the email), then realized that if actually use the existing file (meaning you add an xmlns=" to the project element) it will cause problems with xpath queries.
Before you actually build (use the build file) you need to remove the default namespace def from the build file. If you leave it, all xpath queries will fail. I'll send more info after I write up a brief description of the problem (really just an explanation of the specification) and what to do. In short, we will have to use a prefix name with our xml if you are using the xsd, or change all the xpath in code (probably the better way). If you want to read about the problem (before I post my explanation), here are few posts that get into the issue: http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&threadm=Ojp6QPIUAHA.279%40cppssbbs a03&rnum=2&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dxmlns%2Bnamespace%2Bxpath%2Bcontext%26hl%3 Den%26selm%3DOjp6QPIUAHA.279%2540cppssbbsa03%26rnum%3D2 http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&threadm=wy4rj92fju.fsf%40polya.u-s trasbg.fr&rnum=1&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dxmlns%2Bnamespace%2Bxpath%2Bcontext% 26hl%3Den%26selm%3Dwy4rj92fju.fsf%2540polya.u-strasbg.fr%26rnum%3D1 Later, Scott -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Ian MacLean Sent: Wednesday, April 17, 2002 10:45 AM To: Scott Hernandez Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [nant-dev] nant.xsd sample Scott Hernandez wrote: > Attached is sample of the output for tasks I am generating.

I notice Project is expected as uppercase and "arg" tags aren't handled in the csc task. target should have a depends attribute not a default attr. This is really cool. the intellisense makes to so much quicker - no more looking up the nant task reference every time I code a build file.
