Re: [Nant-users] General NAnt Quesions..

The reason its failing at runtime is because you output your dll and exe 
to 2 seperate directories. This means that at runtime the exe cannot 
locate the dll. VS.net copies referenced dlls to the output directory by 
default. If you want the same behaviour either use a common build 
directory or add a <copy> task to copy myTestDLL to where its needed.

Thanks for the infomation, it came in very handy.

First I build the .dll project. Secondly I build the
winexe project which uses the first project .dll as a
reference. The Second project (appears) to build ok,
however when I run the created exe I get the above
mentioned error.
I get the following error:
"File or assembly name myTestDLL, or one of its
dependencies, was not found." 

Is there something wrong with how I'm referencing the
.dll?  

<target name="dependency1_DLL" depends="GetVSSFiles">
   <echo message="Building myTestDLL.dll" />
   <csc
output="${RootWorkDir}${LocalBuildFolder}${VSSFolder}${myTestDLL}${dll_basename}.dll"
target="library">
     <sources
basedir="${RootWorkDir}${LocalBuildFolder}${VSSFolder}${myTestDLL}">
       <includes name="*.cs" />
     </sources>
     <references>
       <includes name="System.dll" />
       <includes name="System.Data.dll" />
       <includes name="System.XML.dll" />
     </references>
   </csc>
 </target>
 <target name="buildMainApp"
depends="dependency1_DLL">
   <echo message="Building MainTestApp" />
   <csc
output="${RootWorkDir}${LocalBuildFolder}${VSSFolder}${MainTestAppFolder}${app_basename}.exe"
target="winexe">
     <sources
basedir="${RootWorkDir}${LocalBuildFolder}${VSSFolder}${MainTestAppFolder}">
       <includes name="*.cs" />
     </sources>
     <references>
       <includes name="System.dll" />
       <includes name="System.Data.dll" />
       <includes name="System.Drawing.dll" />
       <includes name="System.Drawing.dll" />
       <includes name="System.XML.dll" />
       <includes
name="${RootWorkDir}${LocalBuildFolder}${VSSFolder}${myTestDLL}myTestDLL.dll"
/>
     </references>
   </csc>
 </target>
Thanks again.

I followed the link to
http://nantcontrib.sourceforge.net/ however, it
     

takes
   

me to another link and there isn't any information
     

or
   

a file to download. Can you provide some insight
     

into this
   

NAntContrib program?
     

See the "Getting and Building" page on the NAnt
