Category: None Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Ray Johnson (rjontilt) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: $(TargetPath) in Nant produces invalid path Initial Comment: I have a Post-Event step that looks something like this: copy /Y $(TargetPath) ..\Bin\FTC\ Which works great within VS.Net 2003 - but breaks under Nant. The reason is that Nant creates a path for $(TargetPath that looks something like this: C:\src\devtrunk\testApplication\Release_Pro/testApp.ex e As you can see it is adding a / instead of a \ which makes for an invalid Windows path - which the copy command can not handle. So in the end this must be a bug in how Nant is putting together paths. There is a work around for this particular case. I can change the command to: copy /Y $(TargetDir)/$(TargetFileName) $(InputDir)..\..\Bin\FTC\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Gert Driesen (drieseng) Date: 2005-03-27 21:16 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=707851 VS.NET actually stores some paths with a forward slash in the project files, which we currently do not convert to a backslash. I'll look into it tomorrow (I think) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Gert Driesen (drieseng) Date: 2005-03-25 06:50 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=707851 Ray, Can you also attach a repro for this issue ? Thanks ! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Comment By: Ray Johnson (rjontilt) Date: 2005-03-25 00:23 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1246077 Of course, that work around is wrong - it would produce the same problem! It should be: copy /Y $(TargetDir)\ $(InputDir)..\..\Bin\FTC\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=402868&aid=1170238&group_id=31650 ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
