I don't mind whether my code is in an exe or a dll - I would have needed a wrapper for NAnt if it was an exe that's why I chose the dll.
I also didn't want to replace xsd.exe which has some extra features MSDatasetGenerator (and my code) doesn't have, but if you've got a good idea, just go ahead and show me what comes out. I've written the DatasetGenerator completely on my own, in one weekend - I know that products that come out of such a constellation are often somewhat baindead ;-)
I don't know about <solution> I've never used it as I don't see it's advantage over either my hand-tuned NAnt buildfile or doing everything with VS.NET - perhaps here is someone who could convince me ;-)
btw: the code should also work for Mono. I've intentionally used late binding for VJSharpCodeProvider so that Mono compilation should be no problem.
I just can't test it because I'm currently recompiling my Linux box (LFS) and mono <al> crashes on my windows box.

Oh - thats new info for me - thanks for clarification.
Still - shoudn't be better you write your code into .exe (like myxsd.exe) and use existing <xsd> task to call it? That way we could use whatever replacement for xsd.exe we want (I'm just writing mine own)
btw: does current <solution> handle projects with MSDataSetGenerator already?

Hi Martin,
this is not the full truth.
One could use the xsd command line tool (there is already a wrapper for this tool in NAnt Contrib) for doing things like this, but VS.NET does'nt. As I said it uses MSDataSetGenerator which has'nt got a commandline (The only exception are strongly typed datasets for managed extensions for C++ where the xsd tool is used) .
I've tried it and didn't get what i wanted (code files that can be checked using diff) - that's why I wrote this task.
Regards,
Brar

of Martinyes - xsd.exe is just what MSDataSetGenerator runs.
btw: I just found that mono have also xsd.exe
(http://www.mono-project.com/contributing/ado-net.html) so wrapper seems to be proper way. Moreover, it could be always reconfigurable (via nant framework config) to any custom generator like those mentioned below :-)

What Visual Studio uses is the xsd command line tool. Why not just create a wrapper for the xsd command line tool instead?
Later

Hi,
there is also generator in the PowerToys project on gotdot net workspace http://www.gotdotnet.com/workspaces/workspace.aspx?id=40d3e800
-e2af-4220-a07
9-66552dd2b825
Another one on http://www.thecodeproject.com/dotnet/InheritFromDataSet.asp.
But those generators do not generate identical results as MSDataSetGenerator (intentionally).
Anyway, it could be cool to have this as nant task! Even more if it works under mono (doesn't mono project have something like this?)
