THX Gert for the previous reply, it helped a lot. I’m much closer, but still having a
problem and a few questions remain.
Below is the current form of my build file, with Gert’s suggestions applied.
Documentation clarification:
- One of my original problems was a misinterpretation of ‘frompath’ as a
recursive feature relative to basedir. I did not understand its true capability, that
of using the system PATH environment variable.
- I incorporated the ‘dynamicprefix’ and ‘prefix’ attributes into the resources
tag and they seem to help. However I am unclear from the documentation as to what
they do.
Question:
- The references tag includes basedir, which points to the project root path.
How are the System.* dll’s being found, as they are in the .Net framework folder?
Issue:
- The compile still fails, citing a number of undeclared names (IsDBNull,
InStr, ……) which are part of Microsoft.VisualBasic namespace. My question is how do I
properly reference Microsoft.VisualBasic? I tried adding it to the <vbc> tag with the
import=”Microsoft.VisualBasic” attribute. I have also included it as a reference as
shown below. Neither method worked.

Subject: Re: [Nant-users] requesting help with a build error
You can't have a fileset nested in the references element (I
understand that the task docs are somewhat misleading sometimes), and
you probably shouldn't use the frompath="true" on the <includes>
element in <sources> and <resources> (unless you want to locate
sources or resources on the PATH).
You should try something like this :
<vbc optioncompare="text" optionexplicit="true" optionstrict="true"
removeintchecks="true" rootnamespace="${basename}"
output="${build.fullpath}\${basename}.dll" target="library"
debug="${debug}">
<references basedir="${build.fullpath}">
<includes asis="true" name="System.dll" />
<includes asis="true" name="System.Collections.dll" />
<includes asis="true" name="System.Configuration.dll" />
<includes asis="true" name="System.Data.dll" />
<includes asis="true" name="System.Drawing.dll" />
<includes asis="true" name="System.Web.dll" />
<includes asis="true" name="System.XML.dll" />
<includes name="*.dll" />
</references>
<sources basedir="${build.rootpath}" failonempty="true">
<includes name="**/*.vb" />
</sources>
<resources basedir="${build.rootpath}" failonempty="true"
dynamicprefix="true" prefix="${basename}">
<includes name="**/*.resx" />
</resources>
</vbc>
Hope this helps,
