I am looking for a
technique using Nant to create a ‘generic’ directory walking .build
file.
For example: In the
following scenario, I have three project directories, each with a
.build file (Project1, Project2 & Project3). I’d like to create a
.build file one level up, in this case, Projects.build, that will
iterate over each sub-directory and execute the three .build files
feeding each with the same command line target information as the top
level build file. I would much prefer to
create this top level .build script in a generic manner so that as new
projects are added, and subordinate .build files become available, the
top level .build file will ‘discover’ the new files and automatically
include it in the build—thus alleviating the need to constantly have to
maintain Projects.build as projects are added or deleted. Projects This seems like a fairly
common scenario for managing a hierarchy of project directories. The
idea is to make any one directory the current directory, execute Nant
from that point and have all .build scripts in the next level down
executed. If it works right, the Projects.build script would be
recursive and could be copied to any directory so as to automatically
‘walk’ the next level down. Before I try to figure
out this myself, I wanted to see if someone else had already solved
this problem? Thank you.
