Bala,
You can use the <assemblyfolders> child element of the <solution> task for
this purpose.
eg.
<solution solutionfile="whatever.sln" configuration="debug">
<assemblyfolders>
<include name="assembies" />
</assemblyfolders>
</solution>
This will instruct NAnt to first check the "<project base
directory>\assemblies" directory for referenced assemblies, before starting
to look in the Visual Studio and .NET Framework Assembly Folders.
Right now, the order in which assembly references are resolved is :
1) .NET Framework directory
2) Assembly Folders (first user-specified folders, then Visual Studio .NET
and .NET Framework assembly folders)
3) HintPath
If the resolved path of a given assembly reference matches the output file
of a project that is referenced, then we'll convert the assembly reference
into a project reference. If an assembly file for a given assembly
reference cannot be found, then we try to find a managed project of which
the assembly name matches the assembly name of the assembly reference.
Hope this helps,
Gert
