Hey Simon,
You should set “failonerror” on the <exec> task instead.
Hope this helps,
Gert

Subject: [NAnt-users] Question about <foreach> task and the failonerror
attribute
Hi guys,
I have made a build file for the automated compilation of Oracle Forms files.
An excerpt of the code is as follows:
<target name="build" description="compiles the source code">
...
<foreach item="File" property="filename" failonerror="false" >
<in>
<items basedir="${source.directory}\${project.type}\Forms">
<include name="*.fmb" />
</items>
</in>
<do>
<exec program="${forms.path}"
workingdir="${source.directory}\${project.type}\Forms"
commandline="module=${filename} userid=${username}/${passwo...@${database}
batch=yes module_type=form compile_all=yes window_state=minimize" />
</do>
</foreach>
...
</target>
The build file navigates to the directory containing the forms that the user
desires fo compile and attempts to compile each form. The failonerror attribute
is set to false so that the build file does not exit if a compilation error
occurs. Unfortunately, however, though this prevents the build file from
exiting when a compilation error occurs, it also appears to make the build file
exit the <foreach> task. This is a problem because, unless the form that does
not compile successfully is the last to be tested (based on the filename of the
form in alphanumerical decsending order), there will be one or more forms that
the build file does not attempt to compile. So, for example, if the folder
containing the forms that are desired to be compiled contains 10 forms and the
first form does not compile successfully, the build file will not attempt to
compile the remaining 9 forms (ie exit the <foreach> task). Is there a way to
make the build file attempt to compile remaining forms after encountering after
failing to compile a form? Thanks in advance!
