Well that does seem to work ... sort of. I never realized until now that there is both a devenv.exe and a devenv.com. Learn something new everyday.
But apparently devenv.com buffers all the output and so you can't capture any of the output until the process is completed, which is still not what I want. Here's an interesting link I found that discusses an alternative of using the /out parameter to send the output to a named pipe, which can be read before the program exits. http://stompstompstomp.com/weblog/technical/2004-08-26 Perhaps NAnt could provide some sort of built-in support for this in a future release. I suppose someone from NAntContrib could write an <exectonamedpipe> task, so the NAnt core wouldn't need to be touched. - Kevin -----Original Message----- From: Dustin Aleksiuk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 15, 2005 9:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: nant-developers@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [nant-dev] Capturing devenv.exe output > >Does anyone understand what is going on here? This might be a bit strange, but try using devenv.com instead of devenv.exe (or leave off the extension and it will default to the .com).
