We're not calling the exec directly, but using <msbuild
project="solutionfile"></msbuild>
It works fine this way (the <solution></solution> task for vs2003 didn't
work for us and we did what you did for it, but for vs2005 msbuild seems to
be the way to go).

Hi All,
We have beem using NAnt-0.85-rc3 for quite some time with Visual Studio
2003.NET. In our build files we have been executing builds like this:
<property name="devenvPath" value="c:\program files\microsoft visual
studio .net 2003\common7\ide\devenv.com" />
<exec
program="${devenvPath}"
workingdir="..\Development\"
commandline="/rebuild ${configuration} ${nant.project.name}.sln"
/>
[...]
The problem that I am experiencing right now, and one that is sending me
quite batty after banging my head against a wall for days is.... that the
build simply DOES NOT EXECUTE using NAnt as the entry point.
[...]
Someone please tell me how to build a VS.Net 2005 solution using NAnt. It
can't be this dang hard can it?????? Why doesn't exec work like it did for
VS.Net 2003?
My only guess would be that your argument order to devenv.com is incorrect
(but then again, you say it works manually on the command line). I'd also
double-check that your working directory isn't wrong in the end.
Here's a command that's working fine for me on at least 4 different PCs:
<echo message="Compiling Solution with Visual Studio 2005" />
<exec
program="${environment::get-variable('VS80COMNTOOLS')}..\IDE\devenv.com"
commandline="My.sln /rebuild ${build.configuration}"
/>
VS80COMNTOOLS is defined on any PC that has Visual Studio installed, so I
used it to locate devenv.com. Makes the thing work for people without
telling them to configure special environment variable or set NAnt
properties.
Kind Regards,
Wayne Hartell.
