RE: [Nant-users] No more development?

[Morss, Charlie]

Might not any new development released lately, but I’ve done some cool stuff!   I haven’t pushed this back into CVS yet (don’t have commit rights). But I have been able to cut down a 27 minute build to a 10 minute build by modifying the resgen task. If you look closely at the resgen task you’ll see that it copies all the references that you specify in the csc task to a temp directory so resgen can work (1.1 .Net framework – I understand this is much improved in 2.0).  Since we have lots of large DLL’s in our references this causes problems, i.e. resgen takes longer then the csc due to having to copy DLL’s. So I just made the “temp” directory be the DLL output directory of the csc task (had do some stuff like having it not delete the directory when it was completed, etc).  No more DLL copying!!   Anyhow, even if there isn’t a lot of new releases, there are a ton of new things that can be worked on.  So, just ‘cause the guys haven’t committed, doesn’t mean that you should give up on Nant.  It’s got a great future!   Charlie   P.S. This may have been more appropriate for the dev list – sorry if this is not of interest.     From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ivo Limmen Sent: Monday, September 26, 2005 6:51 AM To: nant-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nant-users] No more development?   I share your concen, I also would like to keep using NANT, as much as I love avoiding using Microsoft products :).

I didn't want to push anyone. I was just wondering why there are no nightly builds anymore. However, I would expect that if an RC3 exists a final version is following soon - without adding new features. Or at least a RC4. Don't understand that as claims (wouldn't make sense). I'm just wondering. Robert ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
