That's every so good of you Eric! I've got a build working in FinalBuilder2 that does a whole heap of stuff other than compile projects. Its pretty cool to have a GUI to visualise the build tasks but as I've mentioned its a real bind when it comes to compiling in dependency order. So I think I need to set aside a weekend to get up to speed with NANT for starters, then have a go at incorporating this custom task (which will probably mean dipping into my C# book!).
Thanks again Christian -----Original Message----- From: Eric Fetzer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 21 October 2004 20:00 To: Crowhurst,Christian; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Nant-users] VB6 build dependencies Christian, Sorry it took me so long to track this down, but it's been a while. A guy who I believe was named Peter, sent me the following code. It's supposed to be like a <solution> task but for VB6. I don't have the C# skills to debug it and such. Maybe you or one of the folks talking about vb6 here do. If so, it could be very helpful as I'm starting to automate the build of a vb6 application.
