[NAntC-Dev] Problem with nAnt 0.85 and NAntAddin

Craig Eddy Wed, 10 Mar 2004 22:00:07 -0800

In NAntAddin.cs, I cannot compile the following line:

if (configNodes.Count > 0)

{

nAntProject.ProcessSettings(configNodes [0]);

}

Because NAnt.Core.Project lacks a ProcessSettings method.

Also, if I comment this out and compile, an exception is generated when I try to execute a target (the exception occurs prior to the comment-out code):

Index (zero based) must be greater than or equal to zero and less than the size of the argument list.

I placed a try/catch/finally around most of this method in order to see this message. Prior to doing so I think VS.NET was eating the exception and unloading the add-in. Here’s the code I added (which accounts for the skewed line number of the last entry in the stack trace above):

public void Run()

{

Monitor.Enter(addin.buildingMonitor);

try

{

<…>

addin.building = false;

}

catch( Exception ex )

{

buildOutputWindow.OutputString(

"\n\n---------------------- Exception ----------------------\n");
