I would keep in mind that NUnit 2.0 [1] is currently in beta and that NAnt integration is on their todo list.

I looked around, and notice, however, that the fork attribute in the current nant NUnit support does not work as is, so I decided to give it a try at fixing it. I've already done some work in this area, and I think it's really not hard to fix. However, I've run into a conundrum, so I thought I'd solicit your input to see what you guys think it's the best alternative: The problem right now is that when the new AppDomain is created, an instance of NUnitTestRunner is created in it. However, this class requires an instance of NUnitTest as an argument to it's one an only constructor. Now, passing it would be no problem, except that it would require the NUnitTest class to be Serializable, or MarshalByRefObject-derived. Personally, I think the first option is the right choice: However, that would impose changes that would rip throughout the entire NAnt library, since all the base classes, attribute classes, etc, would need to become serializable. That means that pretty much everything from Project and Element all the way down would need to be changed to include the Serializable attribute. OTOH, making them MarshalByRefObject would be somewhat simpler, since basically only a few base classes would need to be modified to derive from MarshalByRefObject. Either way, performance could suffer somewhat when running the NUNit tests in a new appdomain, though I think the first option might be a little worse in this. So, what do you guys think? I'd be happy to fix it today or tomorrow, but I want to ensure we do the right thing. -- Tomas Restrepo [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Nant-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nant-developers ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Nant-developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nant-developers
