Chae,

NAnt cannot built using VS.NET, as VS.NET (prior to VS.NET 2005) is unable
to handle dependencies between projects very well.

However, you can compile NAnt using NAnt itself, and then debug NAnt using
VS.NET.  To do this, open the NAnt solution file in VS.NET and change the
following properties of the NAnt.Console project using Configuration
Properties -> Debugging :

- Debug Mode : Program
- Start Application : select NAnt.exe that you just compiled

Finally, just start NAnt (using Debug -> Start or just F5), and when VS.NET
informs you that there were build errors, and asks whether you still want to
continue : select Yes.

Subject: [nant-dev] NAnt Sourcefile


This is my first time using NAnt build tool and I downloaded the .84
version.  I am trying to learn the tool and want to step through the
source code.  I have Visual Studio and am trying to build the solution.
I am getting following 2 errors in building the solution:



1.         Could not copy temporary files to the output directory.

2.         The file 'NAnt.Core.dll' cannot be copied to the run
directory.  The process cannot access the file because it is being used
by another process.



Which project should I set as a start project?  I couldn't find an
instruction for building and using NAnt.  Can you please help me with
this?  Do I have to use CSV?



Thanks,



Chae
