I'm attempting to create a custom NAnt task and I'm running into some issues. My class compiles fine in VS.NET 2005 (I'm running the latest nightly build of NAnt, built for VS.NET 2005/.NET 2.0), but when I try to run the .build file I get the following exception:
BUILD FAILED
INTERNAL ERROR
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at CareWorks.NAnt.VSS.CwtLabelWatchTask.ExecuteTask()
at NAnt.Core.Task.Execute() in d:\Source\nant-20051211T094754Z\src\NAnt.Core\Task.cs:line 171
at NAnt.Core.Target.Execute() in d:\Source\nant-20051211T094754Z\src\NAnt.Core\Target.cs:line 247

at NAnt.Core.Project.Run() in d:\Source\nant-20051211T094754Z\src\NAnt.Core\Project.cs:line 922
When I step through the code with a debugger, it looks like the error is cropping up when the base Task.Execute() method is being run. Specifically this line:
Project.OnTaskStarted(this, new BuildEventArgs(this));
When I step into this method, the properties target, project, and task are all set to null.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeremiah Peschka
