Re: [Nant-users] using devenv instead of csc

[Ian MacLean]

Every time you call devenv.exe from the commandline it loads somthing 
like 50 dlls that aren't directly related to the build process - this 
slows the process down consderably. So depending on the size of your 
build there will be a large time saving to be gained by using the <csc> 
task.
There are a number of methods to generate nant build scripts from vs 
projects - avoiding the manual process of typing a <csc> task for each one.

Hi,

We have just started using Nant as part of our automatic build.  We
started writing Nant scripts to call csc but find this a bit tedious since
it duplicates what is already in the project files.  I have just
discovered how to call devenv.exe to build a project saving us a lot of
typing!
Is there any reason that makes it worth the extra effort of using csc?  Is
there a performance issue here?
