My original vbs was intended to be more generic, that's why I didn't
want to embed it in the vbs to start (and I wanted to be more cross
platform) but I've modified it now to wait for the specific file to
exist. Note this uses Wscript as I call it with cscript.exe to make it
all nant friendly
Sample vbs code
---------------
'Wait for the log file to be created to know the installer is complete
If CheckForFile( strLogFile, 20 ) Then
WScript.Echo "File Found! " & strLogFile
WScript.Quit 0
Else
WScript.Echo "File Not Found - " & strLogFile & " Maximum Retries
Exceeded"
WScript.Quit 1
End If
Function CheckForFile( strFile, intTimerSec )
' Checks for the existance of a file
Dim IntCounter,IntCounterMax, fso
Set fso = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
IntCounterMax = (600 / IntTimerSec)
IntCounter = 0
CheckforFile = false
Do
If fso.FileExists(strFile) Then
CheckForFile = True
Exit Do
End If
IntCounter = IntCounter + 1
If intCounter <> intCounterMax Then
WScript.Echo "File Not Found " & strFile & " - Sleeping
" & IntTimerSec & " Seconds"
Wscript.Sleep IntTimerSec * 1000
End If
Loop until intCounter = intCounterMax
End Function

Any way you can make the vbs script either wait, or do wait/check for
completion loop? That way, NAnt wouldn't have to.
