Summary: Patch to allow scripts to have embedded properties
Initial Comment:
Nant scripts do not use property substition. Attached
is a patch to enable property substitution and a unit test.
I wanted property substitution when generating tasks
that depended on the build configuration.
eg:
<script language="C#" prefix="test" >
<code>
<![CDATA[
[
TaskName("buildsln")]
public class BuildTask :
NAnt.Core.Tasks.ExternalProgramBase {
private string _logDirectory =
"${string::replace(OutputLogDir, '\', '\')}";
private string _buildConfiguration =
"${Target}";
...
There were two other options;
* Pass this information through as properties every
time the task was used, which is redundent and error prone.
* Allow scripts to be set in an attribute, enabling
property substition. eg: <script language="c#"
prefix="test" code="${SomeCodeProperty}" />.

The existing way is a lot more consistent... I prefer it to
my patch. Thanks for the tip.

Scripts and custom tasks have access to properties through
their Project member/parameter:
Project.Properties["SomeCodeProperty"]
I'm not sure if there's a similar mechanism for accessing
NAnt functions... if not, then that would probably be useful.
