The change is required in order to support resx files that reference types
in non-system assemblies.
However, resgen.exe (prior to .NET 2.0) does not support a command line
option for specifying assembly references, therefor I implemented a
workaround, meaning : copy resgen.exe and all referenced assemblies to a
temporary directory, and launch resgen from there.
The problem in your case might be that the path of that temporary directory
that we create exceeds the max. path length. The ensure uniqueness of that
temp directory, we combine the temp path with a Guid :
Path.Combine(Path.GetTempPath(), Guid.NewGuid().ToString("N",
CultureInfo.InvariantCulture))
Can you add some debug statements (Console.WriteLine("...") or
Log(Level.Info, "...")) to the resgen task (or debug NAnt) to find out where
and why it fails ?

Subject: [Nant-users] Path length problem with resgen
Bill,
It seems that your total path length may have exceeded the limit of 255
chars. One alternative is -
when the src files are extracted to your local drive, consider fiddling the
file/path name by making certain name shorter.
eg Microsoft.ApplicationBlocks.ConfigurationManagement (CS) to config mgt.
.Net file convention seems to be longer than the old ways of naming files.
If you keep the file name to less than 255 chars, the build should work.
Hope this info helps.
Regards,
Brian Yeo
