Re: [NAntC-Dev] VB6 Task

[Ian MacLean]

One step ahead of you Gert :) I just made a small fix to correct this 
issue. The task was resolving relative paths from the build file dir 
rather than from the dir containing the vbp file.

Please give it a try Terry and let us know if it works fine on your system.

I agree with Gert that an "alwaysCompile" attribute should not be 
needed. You can always use the touch task before using <vb6> to get the 
same behaviour.

Hi Terry,

I would actually prefer to fix the original issue.  I'll look into
installing VB6 on one of my system to track the issue down and test a fix.

All,

I was working with the vb6 task in a build file and found that the logic
that determines if the project should be compiled seems broken unless the
project file exists in the same directory as the build file.  I don't

have time to debug that issue right now, but as a quick fix I added a new
"alwayscompile" task attribute that, when true, insures that the project
gets compiled, regardless of the outcome of the NeedsCompiling() method.
   

I
 

like this solution because I generally always want to rebuild all projects
during the build, and it's nice to be able to force a rebuild when you
   

want.
 

The modified task is attached.  If any maintainers wish to add this
modification to the source tree, feel free.
